all the fucking stars aligned
i never was that
cool, confident
motherfucker
that could just
walk up to every
beautiful woman
and say hello
i needed a plan,
alcohol and all
the fucking stars
aligned
now, well past
those fruitful
years
i only allow
myself a few
moments to
think love is
even possible
anymore
and on what
fucking planet
that happens
to be
——————————
god had the chance to love me
i rest easy at night
comfortable in my
madness
laughing at all the
wrong moments and
enjoying that awkward
silence
god had the chance to
love me but said no
i treat each day as
my fucking revenge
i have no delusions
on winning or actually
enjoying the ride
i only seek to inform
the sheep on how to
find joy in the misery
of others
and when they tell
me i’m evil, i laugh
and tell them evil
is filling these fools
with false hope
evil is stealing
their money to
rape their children
in god’s name
and trust me
the religious people
i know can’t fucking
stand facts

someone lost in the war
there’s a woman
in a wheelchair
staring a hole
through me
i’m guessing i
remind her of
someone lost
in the war
maybe a son
or a lover from
a strange land
with the scowl
on her face
i don’t think
it was a good
relationship
as she was being
rolled away she
gave me the finger
i guess that lover
cheated on her with
someone she knew
——————————
the underside of the world
a hazy
morning
on the
underside
of the
world
those
daring
eyes
piercing
my soul
even
before
the first
cup of
coffee
today is
going to
be another
day we
convince
ourselves
that
everything
is going to
be alright
——————————
baptized
i got
baptized
on april
fools day
the first
thing i did
after getting
dunked for
the third
time was
fix my
hair
the
congregation
laughed
they were
in on the
joke long
before
i was
