"drunkness" poems
she gave me her cell #, in a crowded bar inked upon my forearm, "in case in my drunkness, I dare forget," a common come-on technique, that reeks of all good things to come but I failed to see, in the little letters, "@ your own peril" a warning, poorly heeded, inflaming my now unimaginable needy neededs, just a **** come on, or a warring warning of tumult, vampirish blood ******* with cautious haste, her number I did paste into my contact list, 'in case of loss, call,' when sudden notifications galore, came unbidden from everywhere: Are you really sure? these digits seems were posted on a Do Not Call list, maintained by monks and bro's, no, no, not a list of what-rhymes-with-bro's, but of fallen angels, who knew the secrets of heaven the price extracted for their revealing, could cause you life long arthritis of the heart, per the Surgeon General, for which the only cure, endure, endure, endure... the prize? endless wonderful new poems, freely given, but with one strictest of restrictions, if published, it meant your slow extinction! *that is why the world calls me Poet of the Way, forever trying to find a way, to away these treasured glories* then one day, he laughed and laughed, when he first he read the magic key, your poem, successfully saved *on Hello Poetry!* and now the poet endures, even possibly, self-saved, quite happily

she gave me her cell #
Bella, My sweet bella The one who makes me feel like my whole body hurts because I miss her It's too much I miss those nights, the ones with the moon by our side How our drunkness made us close I never thought someone I've seen six times would mean so much to me I need your presence, I'm broken I need someone I need someone with whom to share my ***** in a bottle mixes with gatorade I need that sausage smell I'm writing this while being ****** But my dear Bella, you mean the world to me and I never thought someone would become as important as you have It's like you put the stars in the skies I need you to have someone to drown my sorrows in a bottle with. I miss you But I know sometime, soon I'll get drunk and do fun stuff with you Nothing seems fun without you, you might be the missing piece but Dear Bella, wait for me, as the sun waits to rest when sunset comes. I love you as much as a cherry blossom tree loves it's beautiful flowers that just bloomed

It was magical. The starry night, under the trees. The romance, completely willing. Each person covering in the I love you's of tomorrow and for the rest of eternity Or at least thats how it was perceived by their story Everyone knew what they didn't want them to...they're romantic night was a joke. Stumbled drunkness, followed by lustful "I love you's" and bad decision making It was all an accident and it was the beginning of me. Panicked months followed. Fake happiness. Attempts to destroy and forget the mistake. New years. They made a vow...a resolution to finally be okay. And for a while, they even tricked themselves to think that. It was great...for about a year then he left she left a few years later. World War 3 was at a stand still...but only for a while. It didn't take much to rekindle the fire. As they say...you always remember your first drunken love. To love forever with them until the day the universe forces you two to part. (PSH! Yeah...thats not what they say) There was crossfire immediately Flames thrown further than light can travel and the only person being burned...was me. I wasn't raised by them. I couldn't ever possibly be that angry. I have loving grandparents that show nothing but affection and support. BUT GENETICALLY...I was ******* My outside environment only frustrated my inside environment. It was like the Wiggles vs. Hannibal Lector. Surprisingly the end didn't turn out as violently as many imagined. I was always trying to be "saved" but I never understood what from? The worse that had come out of the entire situation was me...as I am now. Granted...I have communication issues I'm a bit too sarcastic and the only was I can say what I really feel is through pen and paper. Sticky notes cover every corner of my room, screaming every obscenity that has ever crossed my mind AND YET.... I think I'm okay. I'm successful in most aspects of my life. And it had everything to do with my beginning. I've heard "I'm sorry" ever since my grandparents came to back to school night in kindergarten. What for?! How many people do you know that can walk through a valley of fire unscathed? Honestly, don't be sorry...because after what I've accomplished the lustful drunken night vs. the romance means nothing. And who knows...it could have been under a tree on a starry night.

To the all the guys I have kissed: My first, I thought you were sweet too bad it didn't last My drunkness, I don't know who initiated it perhaps it is better that way My first boyfriend, I thought you meant it but I was the one who felt it. My mistake, You were a rebound. I was payback. My foolishness, You leaned in and I felt bad. Guess guilt is a nasty emotion. My first love, You wrote a song I loved to sing, I wish you never forgot the words. My payback, I am sorry I used you, I cried when I got home. My sorrow, I wish you told me you had a girl friend, so I can break your neck, they way you'd break her heart.

Regrets are prohibited
Night #1 Around the dinner table crickets directed a noiseless choir It's all full of emotion But I don't know how to Define a face full of earthquake expressions When the stars play guitar with three broken strings it sounds like musical genius, and the grass is waving to it. "Dude, the moon's coming out now," I hear from the crowd. The autumn brown leaf outside the window turns green in amazement And then it swallows the sky whole. Night #2 I don't even feel my drunkness, I just feel the highness and euphoria. I wonder who sees Orion with me tonight. The triple XXXs behind the drummer and ringing tambourines scream with guitar picks and microphones and I think I know this euphoria is more powerful than the whisky in my right hand. I'm the king of upside down guitars that read "DEATHBOT," and the "B" is backwards and I don't give a **** Night #3 Arnold Palmer and coconut juice A pair of glasses and a sight that's obtuse I don't need to see straight like a wave in the ocean that capsizes at night And I roll up a joint that is beyond precise.

Till I read your letter
We sat across from each other Both knowing what we wanted You drinking champagne And I drinking whiskey, Burning like fire traveling down my throat Drunkness overtook us And you knew how badly I wanted you Just like you wanted me You whispered in my ear and kissed my neck I turned to you and kissed your soft lips The taste of champagne on my whiskey lips tasted so sweet Every night I relive it in my dreams

Whiskey Lips
Well, I finally stated the truth. "idk I'm just tired of it, this drunkness is false happiness." glares up at me as I look about my room. Broke my painting, my sunglasses, wrecked my arm, my liver. Shaking and quivering from too much to drink to the kitchen sink. I think it's time to stop.

Slippery Slope
Answer my tenderness With love, not hate. And my drunkness, It is getting too late. The drugs you gave I am getting addicted. I became your slave This is what I predicted.

About Costumes and Customs Wear, wear whatever you dare, Tho, the global locality has no morality... Animals with human customs, Humans with animal costumes Form the world into a modest mode- In which the smartest ones are silent While the mass dress in rumbling drunkness, In happy hues of the humbling violent, Of the primitive homo-geniuses. Does ****** equal with the human nature? Which? Human as savage or creature? Born or grown? While sensations design human customs, Is predestination more than a fake costume? Does the world hold anything divine? While we follow an immoral aurora- Its warming colours in a frozen desert, That implies no divine unseen scenes? Questions are colorless, unseen but existing, Alike to God's infinite fineness- Probing our customs if they are probed. Methink costumes as a colorful ocean, Mesee customs as the change of the world. We sink in the dying world's dying ocean.

Colorful Costumes of Customs
I forfeit for this; mobility   my mind served up to its drunkness off you bodies full on my lack of finding sound your disregard & relieve your knife of what it had done to me as I gaze at your sleep in the direction of mine & drowned in fog until I lose until I turn blue with love it is there I see her heart I want to swallow your key I blame the weight of the hand & I frame the finger I blame the math and pattern under your mattress I left my gist thumbs and throat you just keep switching the sheets I bring the ocean to hold my thighs down for every time that every time I say it it is me speaking and not the situation I forfeit for weather reports and hurt feelings resuscitate by mouthing off to suffocate this feeling

Today I shed some tired eyes Under leaves, leaves with corners and sharp edges Today I shed some weary legs Upward over the mountain down into the streams The fragrant and decaying The cloying and the stagnant Odd how a man can look over miles of open country & see nothing but subdivisions Odd how a man can look at another & **** for a belief Odd how a man can smile into the empty bottle & see no light through the glass Bones buried under sand a time, bulldozed another foot deeper Someones kid hidden behind a picture in a wallet We hid somewhere, in those bushes in the field Hid from ourselves Listened to the creek and tried to decipher language The tea your brewed sits cold in my hands And the smiles you shared sit cold in my lips We drank together on the beach, me and these guys Selling cigarettes to put food on the table While their sisters sold themselves And all I could decipher through my drunkness Was that I wasn't supposed to be there Never was, never was I sit with these ugly ballpoint words and think of you I sit with these grasshopper thoughts and think of nothing I sit with my feet in still water, my eyes on dead clouds I think of the broken days Blackout wine bottle days Writing on the wall on where to ride trains to Through New Mexico, to drift Fall off the face of it for a while Bootknife nights We spoke through the cigarette smoke How we didn't choke I'm not sure Made me put them down For good It was odd, watching those dogs eat those camels In the sand dunes The bodies of a car accident lopsided and covered in someones sheets Drove for days, small cities, large refineries An empty ocean that seemed to carry its sand into the horizon Dune after dune Somehow we bargained a pack of smokes for two Saudi riyal I drank to much and said to little, she always said Over and gone, pictures on the fridge Sleeping at 2, waking at 5 Eyes heavy and the first cigarette A cup of coffee and the slow realization That the sun remains to rise

Yes my teeth on top That was after i saw her I felt itchings from every beat of time I imagined i would take her number but rather borrowed her pen I forget to smile when we met When i turned my face to she was gone She moved with a beam of eyes following her Its like she hired all men to eye her front back and side All men were covered in drunkness of her perfume like a smoking room Her legs were fit too high higher than my approach i would make a point through so i went again Closed my eyes and touched her **** i touched a wrong woman In her toughes almost kicked with words I walked away naked in shame I was angry what i eyed wasnt the best I moved and landed into a wall For i had lost the way My skin went dry when a lady held me by the shoulder Her hands too soft that she fronze my blood The other moments i left un said for my ****** had come She has eaten my far self in kindness Am now lost yet seen within my eyes Her subsequent gestures cleansed my nerves off breathe Didnt die for i kept magnifying through her presence

Maybe it's the residual hangover From a two day binge talking But I see your presence a lot It's hard not to in today's world And sitting here writing this I am swaying And every part of me wants to drink tonight The last three times I have I have ended up sobbing in a corner With people saying I'm sorry, I'm so sorry Where was I going with this? Right, right The residual drunkness brought on by a hangover And the little hints you leave I'm not sure if they are for me to find Or maybe you are doing what I do Or more than likely You aren't doing any of those things And I'm so desperate for something Anything From you I'll turn the most menial of things into a mental scavenger hunt Because it is noon on a Saturday I have just woken up I have a hangover And I have lost all control of my life Without you

Noon on a Saturday
time's imperative need to always perform and be in conscious of all the things that matters--is that nothing matters Why do we even care? i witness these movements, in and out, here and there As if, at some times, it will make sense and for what? with solitude, and with darkness in our minds we move around--ask these wind, the waves, and lyrics that you listen to 24/7 trying to relate to what we feel night and day in bleak of solitude, dwelling in profound drunkness ask that who cry with their wide smiles ask that which whines with their perfections ask that who are restless in between sleep and awake for life's eternal burden--that breaks and pierces within and you must stop worrying for words can't tell what we go through it's a forever going circus. let's fill ourselves with wine, poetry, our floating existences.. and these careless words, sometimes deep sometimes shallow and must stop worrying. for each other, and for one another

for one another
I'm really sick of law of telling me what to do of telling me where to go; Sick of time, of counting time Sick of all the adventures I could have but stay home take care Same little same bed It isn't big enough; A large boulder would suffice better as a bed In a desert or a plain I don't care. I want get new fluids up and down my body law doesn't cope I want excessive alcohol, excessive hugs, excessive moolight I want it so excessively I want to ***** it Spread it Swallow it And **** it all again At once! All at the same time! I want starvation drunkness under the moon I want sweating under the sun on the desert plains I want not bathing and howling on the dirt Animals would be ashamed And so be it I want beat this world and the other and be beaten by it. Send me some motherfuckin' postcards of your places I wanna visit them all!

how of, U wen 've been wine amongst such dower trees as Spring: a perched upon a string of suddenly cool night has alighted with weft of surging flower a stumbling drunkness of **** infinite self (a parting of easy fragrance ) soft at the hinges and wet between the peels of rough human knees: (some hand; some soft At play at hurtfully entering eager pain .) t h e sound o f fingers; the sound of love.

I couldn't create anything but my drunkness, Why do we need to go away from this madness? I need to improve it, I need to challenge it, But instead, I choose to cry, Cry as if anyone can hear me, In this melodramatic kind of me. I felt as no-one can help me, Which I was right. No-one could help me but the red-wine, Instead of the corrupted earth, we have done.
