I wanna Play this trumpet

louder than you

quicker thank monkeys

flinging their poo

daylight, nighttime

anywhere at all

****** up **** ups drop and crawl

for me

to blow my horn

like you blow ****

brass, ***, grass

and **** that’s sick

drunk off beer

and question marks

evil smirks

in trailer parks

cigarettes

and jacking off

hitting bongs

until I cough

choke

i spoke

too quick

again,

***, brass, and **** that’s sick

Some days i sit at this cushy chair, ******* my ***, bored, eyes glued to the glare of questionable information and quiet chuckles. Don’t know where to go from here-Refresh. Click. Click. ****. Back. Perhaps smoke more, or read less, give some madness to this rhyme. Or, is that how the saying goes? Sorry, got lost staring at my cat on a rug. It’s a neat rug. The black circles on a brown and grey background. It’s almost enchanting. I, like my feline friends, am fixated by this sublime texture. Oh yea, about the boredom…

Poetry is art
it is beautiful
grabs the ***** with words
and refuses
to let go
from the moment the stanza
reaches your brain
you're hooked
like the first beer
the first line of *******
it takes the wheel
and drives you
to insanity

I want to write like
No other *******
Put pen to paper
And disgust
Recite my pain for you
To think it is beautiful
One nicotine soaked page
After another
Like the blues
The beats
And the punks
Find glitter in the horror
We fear to acknowledge
I want to be that *******
Too drunk to write
Yet too scared not to
Disillusioned
Emotional
The killer in all of us
With a pen

Do you wanna be friends with me
  do you wanna be friends
  with a punk like me
My iron cross tattoo and a
  middle school concept of
    anarchy
  we can
  go to shows and smoke Newports
  bring down the establishment with
    empty cans of PBR and spraypaint

So you wanna be friends with me
  So you wanna be friends
  With a wretch like me
My dog eared copy of Slaughterhouse-5
And my irrational distaste for
   Humanity
We can
Smoke *** in your backyard and
Scream about ****** babies
   While burning bible pages
As if we were making a statement about the inherent theocracy plaguing
Our government

Do you wanna be friends with me
Do you wanna be ****** like me

Shot down and tired
nerves wracked beyond repair
cars pass
I can hear them screaming
hell virus protect me
from shallow graves
frigid winds that pierce my navel
i only wish to make pretty things
that disturb
quench thirst with an iron fist
lord, drain this ink from my veins
this bloodletting of art
repugnant
letters of virtue
set in vice and there it shall remain
unscathed
by peace and tranquility
visceral in thought
as in writing
scream louder at this page
i ******* dare you
grab it by the groin and yell as though
love were a blade in your spine
be the beast
we all desire
shot down and tired

Then again there were three
                     listening in
through a        small hole in the wall
you forgot to patch
    now words flow through              like songs from a radio
                rumors heard
secrets
           spilled   into unwanted ears
tales of misdeed
    leaking      then again
who cares?
