The enemy was the same as us,
  cannon fodder for chess players.
  We killed them as best we could
  burdened monsters crying prayers
  cursing horrible ****** landscape
  skin in hair and mouth and eyes.
  I held pieces of my brothers to
  whisper insane war torn goodbyes.
We wear white hats
and ride white horses
to rein in the sheep
to right wrong courses.
"I love you"
"****"
"I quit"
"Don't worry
it will fit"
"I promise
it won't hurt"
"Forever"
"I want a divorce"
"You don't understand"
"She gets me"
"I'm sorry"
"It's not you"
"It's me"
I've been unlucky in love. I will
   be rich when I make a risky bet
   on a new innovation. Trust new
   love because you're near 70.
   Just grab for the brass ring
   one more time and remember to
   take your blood pressure meds
   and ******. Update your will.
I believe in air
and growing hair
patches puberty,
free me liberty.
All lives matter,
same old batter,
never quite right
too dark or light.
We live too long
to love a song
or smoke a ****
or love her ****.
Oh My God, I do
confess it's true.
Dragging the strip long ago
  smooth thin fem boys glow.
  Made up as fairies grow
  into *******'s final blow.
  Poppers they take more
  inches, delightful score.
  Rod died from Aids.
  Memory never fades.
No
I can't take another you're pretty.
You're kind words wreak of pity.
I was born a stain
in a family of pain
War torn father brought it home.
I lick my wicked wounds alone.
Keep your love to yourself
in a lonely jar on your shelf.
