Stand Back Out and Up

Empty bottles scattered across the linoleum floor
Just like the futile coke bags floating in your toilet bowl
Both still congested with the lost memories that occurred last night
Blacking out under the twilight
Stars crashing down on the rooftop 
Where elitists stare unoriginal 
Doesn’t bother me much
I’ll try and find their stash and share it with worthy list souls 
Sh*tty party on repeat
Cliques tapping their feet simultaneously 
Soaking in the sulfuric summer heat
Drinking and grinding your teeth
I wouldn’t trade any of these moments 
Trying to remember what shoes I wore
What f*cking hat she had on
I want bottles and bags within my reach at all times
The best lines written went up my nose 
Carved in my initials
Choking down piss warm beer with the knot in the back of your throat
Pour a shot
Make a toast
To your fruitful dissociation 
And, ghost everyone 
Recover your faculties in social isolation
