Who the Hell Do You Think You Are

I’m a recovering Catholic 
drug fiend and addict,  
a drunk, a thief and ex-con, 
musician, writer,  half assed poet, and fighter, 
a drifter, failed husband and father, 

horrible dancer, an excellent cook, Atheist, well read and a scholar, 
quick tempered, dog person, sports fan, crack shot, I'm also an excellent driver 
a dreamer,  jokester, gambler,
and friendly
Known to be lazy, sometimes a liar 
Worked as a smuggler 
too old now to do time 
It's the reason that I've retired.
