I was well into my cups by then
angered by my arrogant cowlick.
I always go to war at midnight
armed with beer's beloved logic.

I juggled scissors and mirrors
snip snip drink more beers.
Wake hungover hair butchered,
wife wanting divorce in tears.

Death is a rebirth back
into infinity's dark mystic
the vast door opens a crack
into time's lonely final tick.

My machine lost power
for a moment heart stopped
wet and **** perfect flower
hospital janitor mopped.
So many tests were run.
Nothing was really wrong.
Treatment was never begun.
Dead or living do I belong?
God's all seeing eye
midnight's full moon
angry sun stares at noon
watch us living as we die.

A beard or discover
a truth in between
She/He a real lover
bulges seldom seen.

Imprisoned in memories
no escaping if you please
every cruel thing I've done
another bullet in my gun
begging for a final ending
to  ******* pretending.

You used to set my blood afire
      burning my guilt to the ground,
      a dry rain quenched the blaze.
      That's when my truth was found.
     Lovers always come and go.
      Fire and rain defined my heart.
      Angels steered me home to
      try fixing lives I've ripped apart.

Show me your desires
reveal your wildfires
never mind my neglect
I have to face my regret.
