Refrain

Insane,
deranged,
when high on cane.
I must refrain
from corrupting my brain.
Like this..
I have a lisp,
drunk and I miss,
My Latin barbie doll.

I feel small
insignificant and all,
a pea sized rain drop,
solo I fall...
I pick up my cell phone
call thy booty call.
only to stall,
my heart-ache.
