Poem

Yours truly dug deep with bony strength 
in tandem with fantasy notions know
king around in figurative heady 
toboggan noggin like cranial carapace 
to muster every ounce of strength 
in an effort to escape chronic confrontation 
with endless streak of bleakness.

Although cursed with brutish, 
nasty, and short nefarious fate 
as a measly looking human 
varmint, this grimy, 
grungy, mangy, rangy, et cetera 
looking besotted being 
clung with all the might 

within his five foot ten inch 
or so tall and one hundred 
and sixty five pound body 
to transcend sigh grimly 
twerking terrestrial travesty 
that tweeted n tweaked laugh-in 
fickle finger of fate in my favor.

I tapped into atavistic survival skills 
summoned willpower to stay alive 
drinking butter bear while heavy cross 
of dirty poor poverty borne.

No matter a hard-core skeptic at heart, 
this cynic plaintively called 
for divine intervention 
to help one nondescript human piece 
of flotsam and jetsam 
to cope - living like 
doleful junkyard dog.

In essence, this abandoned, ignored 
and shunned vagrant frequently 
raged against the Deus ex machine 
found figurative amidst 
literal lovely bones 
slim pick hens with demons 
that tormented psyche.

While traipsing along litter strewn 
condemned boulevard of broken dreams, 
torn and well-worn shoe kicked 
a couple of long discarded items. 

These weather beaten hands 
reflexively bent to retrieve accouterments.

One comprised colorful jagged shard, 
in a previous lifetime 
housed cheap fermented liquor.

Nothing but crud 
filled remnant of dog gone 
booze hounds’ favorite drink.
