Drunk Chicken

-Unedited-



Sad strange little man,
You should, no wait you have to ditch the bar
That's on your to do list 7 days of the week
Cuz you start to think you're unique using you're technique
But really you're just a freak
Sad strange little man,
You know it's only getting worse
You start to curse then you're stealing
Purses from nurses (wait stop that's the cops!)

You sicken me you drunk chicken you!
You make me wonder, how you're still stuck with her
If you're afraid of the night
I'm surprised your pocket's still alright
If you can survive on booze
Then surely you can choose,
To lose the loco in your noggin

Sad strange little man,
You should really get a better hobby
When did you start calling Robbie, Zimbabwe?
Cuz you start to think it's alright to start a bar fight
But really you're not that bright
Sad strange little man,
You know it's only getting worse
You start to curse then you're stealing
Purses from nurses (wait hold on that's john!)

You sicken me you drunk chicken you!
You make me wonder, how you're still stuck with her
If you're afraid of the night
I'm surprised your pocket's still alright
If you can survive on booze
Then surely you can choose,
To lose the loco in your noggin

Cause last night you didn't come home!
And we were all worried sick that you were dead
Or worse down at the tavern again
It's like we have to have iron bars just to keep you in
Is this a prison cell? Do we have to have our eye on you all the time?
Oh it's brave how you look to the bright side
You're not afraid of dying,
Just scared to death that there won't be a bar in the afterlife
So get out, get out
Cause these colors are blurry
No you never worried
Your mind is an open door
We don't know how you are anymore
You're a drunken chicken and it's too late



For the WORST POEM CONTEST

This is absolutely appalling to me on so many levels. Looking back at it now it's sorta funny, but wow! Where in the world was my brain at when I wrote this!?

I have never made a blog (but I guess there's a first time for everything). Thanks for your encouragement... I hope you're not a nurse or I just might steal your purse... lol.

I am surprised by how many liked this poem... but you're not in the minority, Donna (it seems to be 50/50 whether or not you actually enjoy this... lol).

Humph - you say that to all the guys, apparently ms PD. Oh well, I really commiserate with the drunk chicken since I are one.

It's funny how my first win in a contest is one called... the WORST POEM contest... haha. It honestly is an honor... for it's surprisingly difficult being this terrible. At the time I truly thought it was good, however (my how times have changed... lol).

Ok...I don't know what to write about this...I've started and deleted and now I'm as stumped as ever. Good write...not your best...definitely not what you were hoping...a contest win or anything. So...yea....rock on! Oh...and by the way, tell Caleb if there are cheesecake trees in heaven, I wouldn't be surprised if there were bars...one exception...no calories and no non-alcoholic drinks and gorgeous women with fit bodies..OK...um...I got to go!

i just realized how "awkward" your whole comment was. I can see you're a bit speechless... Ooooh Eileen... yes my friend was a bit embarrassed to be seen around me after showing him this "poem"... lol... cheesecake trees sound epic, btw!
Hicks Avatar

"not your best"... well I was posting it in the "worst poem contest"... LOL! I wrote this when I was around 14 or 15. I was very close to deleting it actually, but I couldn't help how well (I thought anyway) it suited the current contest.

I was reading down this thinking not bad. Reached the bottom and saw it entered into the contest. Sorry Tim but no chance of winning with this, the irony though, is that you have to do a lot better to get worse lol. Yeah well, you try and work that out lol. Take care, Richard

The sad thing is that I got the idea for the song because of someone's gamertag in Halo - video-game reference. Thanks for your support!

Maybe there is something missing in my head but I think this is really good! I think you haveno chance of winning.

Lol no accounting for taste. Even more amazing when I consider how young you were when you wrote it.

I posted it elsewhere and got severely criticized. Hmm... well I'm glad you liked it while at the same time I was hoping it was terrible... LOL!
