my grandfather
taught me to
keep my words
like a woman's skirt;
long enough to
cover the good parts,
short enough to
keep things interesting.

it's been a while

i'm still a poor *******,
i'd still give a canadian a cigarette,
probably won't ever **** a man
but if i do,
he'll die with my
respect.

last night

she paid off her bar tab
with pieces of silver scraped
from my shiny metallic heart
and hopped
bar to bar
on ***** feet carrying
liquid pistols
in each hand.

God Bless Gin

Forgive me Father
God bless Gin
Drank before, be Drunk again
Alone in a corner, Alone with friends
Everthing lies, Everything sins
