Well happy new year, may this year be better,  i laughed in its face as i lay in the gutter, one becomes one then along comes another. Verse chapter, turn over the page, the story has grow but the endings the same . Please don't quote me,  on my literary illiterate words, i am but a novice,  trying to write for what its worth..***

Teenage beauty queen , a pageant  judge's  dream , she was heaven sent , snatched away , highway manikin. Undressed then dressed again , stagnant fluids drain from her abused sun kissed skin , although she starts to rot , vultures they have other thoughts .
,A skeletal form, bleached scattered  bones, her dental records,  all that she's become. Her gold plated necklace,  her mothers gift , now displayed with the missing list

Well mr bukowski,  looks books and deadbeat hotel accommodation,  looks like you got a bit more of your literature desolate interpretation . Raising bile over a sink while taking down your own dictation.  Soiled bed sheets , a hung out writers perspiration.  Drip fed camera eyes taking it all in , the day to day , there  daily sins

They feed me thiamine,  to stop the rot .
Alcoholism dementia , memories all but lost .
Desperate measures,  in Desperate times
Starving misrepresented peasants , in modern binds
Fake or fortune,  love not hate
Childhood trauma  to navigate  

Open sores bleed  it out, paint a pictue if in doubt , crazy times with fent cut lines , death all over , waisted lives
Channel hoping in rubber boats , bloated children wash up on shores , bombs a popping everywhere,  seems everyone is unaware,  humanity spent , its come undone,  what a crock of **** we've  become

She was like a sunset on a **** shaped piece of sand
A picture of health,no card dealt by then .
The sky blue
The new you.

Over and over again its madness., this post procrastination.

Live your life heady one it really is not lasting

I reach out from the waters distilled
A preacher just shot me
My innereds aint thrilled
I put out my hand and reach for my lord
Two 45 bullets
Then he was gone.
Now the pain a feel its working real deep, am bleeding so bad am eternally leaked. I look up above the sun is real low,  i say my fairwells and pleasantly go

Well i dont hear the blackbird anymore
She aint speaking to Charlie no more
The bus has left,the poem now bereft, still nirvana.
