AA big mountain, neat poet, and so nice educated person!
im playing cards with pandora
and she’s bleeding her hand
its so painfully obvious
i see her grand plan,
because calamities hit a set
and she’s feeling alright
but theres one card left
im holding hope tonight
and its hope which
keeps me in this game,
im bankroll backed
no matter the pain
that might come
from losing it all
im in too deep
not prepared to fall
the scripture clearly indicates
what one should do in this place
step 1
admit you’re powerless
you cant fight demons which dont exist
step 2
find someone who
can save you and set your free
step 3
give up again,
find your god and pray to them
step 4
im getting tired of this
pray for strength to resist
temptations which prick and poke
nerve endings, sending signals
to the brain, wanting more
needing pain,
write it down, find where it hurts
tell us all how you’re the worst
step 5
step 6
step up
who gives a
you wont resist
until your hope ceases to exist
It tells the soul,
I’ll give you wings.
I’ll enlighten you and bring peace.
I’ll fill your mind with a brilliant idea.
I’ll cause your heart to feel like it agrees…
With me, anything is possible –
Even the darkest doubts will see…
With me, the champion, the star –
There is a promise of no worries, no qualms,
No reason to doubt the alcohol.
It tells the soul,
You’re free to do anything,
You can dream and believe.
You can always achieve.
You will know and agree… this drink,
It provides your mind with ingenuity,
Gives your heart wings, your life originality.
It tells the soul,
Yes, oh yes, you are free,
While, in secret, it locks the chains,
Chains sent to expose your insecurity,
Chains meant to destroy your certainty,
Chains sent to darken your skies,
And bleed worry into all of your nights.
As it tells your soul – you are free,
It imprisons you with bonds that, in fact,
Will make it nearly impossible to breakout,
Escape the tears, the fears, the years…
Seas of heartbreak and loneliness,
Seas of misery and melancholic fate,
Seas who drown you in an alcoholic’s regret!

I never knew angst to be so devilish a thing
Taking me from a million clean years,
To ABC house of booze, because,
My blood money was abused by him
Wrecking the Kia Sportage I was strapped in
A passenger, pained to point of surgeries.
And on a rainy morning he swore resenting
Driving me to physical therapy,
And before the settlement, made his request:
"...Do my bathroom floor like yours."
And half of what I got was to be his
He carved such rules I broke in time
And kept secret what figures were mine.
But, lo and behold I sat pondering, counting pennies
And the devil drove me to think...
I should drink to that
All I got, and shared, and fail to stash.
Who knew Canadian whiskey would whisk me to detox?
And I, a recovering addict/alcoholic chose house of God
In AA I'd sit with alcoholics sharing what they drank,
How, when, where.
I'd rather say never again.

VOILA!
Being kicked to the curb
while skipping to the loo
my friends.
Now back to my shake and bake,
small town of Hilo,
that sits on the bay
below erupting
Mauna Loa &
the 100+ tremors
daily since it began
this past Sunday late at night.
Aloha Hilo Poet William
I must go, to highest hopeful heaven
I must go to holy heavenly heaven;
I must go
I must go to Holy heaven
I must go to high heaven
I must go
I must go to humble happy heaven
Hallelujah Amen

hello
my name
is Ambrose
and i'm
a male
anglerfish
i admit
i've been
since birth
attached
to my woman
not even to say the
word
love
but
because
of her blood
and above all
so down
in the deep
i need her yes
i am
dependent
on where she
swims
and where
she goes so
yes i
yes i
depend
on
my
wife's
life
and i
never will
be able
to make it
without her
I got some
Experience
Gimme a little bit
Of that Strength
Some
Just a little hope
I'm trying to get
Rid of that dope
I'm tired
Of waking up
In my own blood
Sleeping in cars
Tired of hanging in bars
Don't tell me how
You got high
Tell me how
To stay dry
JUST THINKING....
Now as I sit here
With an O shaped mouth
Wishing to write something
Ending up writing nothing...
Tired I am
Of this common brain drain
Greeting us all in this abode...
I can't write
I wish to work
None is here...
My dream job knocks
I open the door for it
I see it not...
Is it lurking?
Has it gone?
Is it coming back?
Or
Was it just a flash in the pan?
I know not..
Here I wait patiently
For it
Writing nonsense
Which might make sense...
Does it make sense?
I know not...
Send to me a helper
Before all goes awry...
Here I cry
Beg
Plead
Weep
Sweat
And
.......
I need it
Before it boils over!!!!

YA KNOW WHAT, I AIN'T ENTITLING THIS BECAUSE I JUST MISSED THE TITLE STORE
THERE ONCE BE A PAIR
THEY MET IN A PARK
IN THE DARKNESS OF DESPAIR
AND SUDDENLY A SPARK
BUT AN ERRANT FLAME THIS COULD BE
ALAS, A LAD AND A LASS
'TWAS ON A NIGHT TWO WOUDST AGREE
TO NAKED THEIR FEET AND WALK ON SHATTERED GLASS
OH THE SHARPENED SHALE OF DEPTH IT GOAL
LEAVING BLOOD AS A TRAIL THEY KNEW LED TO NOWHERE
AND OH THE INNOCENCE THOSE ILLICIT ILLUSTRATIONS STOLE
YET NEITHER USED THEIR BETTER JUDGEMENT AND NOR FEAR
EACH PAIR OF EYES FOCUSED ON A FLICKERING LAMP
YET MINDS BESET BY SHOULD OR SHOULDN'T THEY
AND THERE MIDST A MISTY EVE WITH TRANQUILLY DAMP
HE SAID "FOR THE MISSING STARS IN THE SKY SOMEONE MUST PAY"
AND SO THEY ROSE TO STROLL SOMEWHERE EACH KNEW LITTLE OF
BLINDLY DID BOTH YONDER THEN TO PIERCE A FEARSOME LINE
NO, IT BE NOT WHAT YOU MAY THINK IF YOU THINK IT LOVE
I ONLY KNOW THEY WERE WAYWARD AND ONE OF THEM DIED BUT FROM
WHAT......WELL YOUR GUESS IS AS GOOD AS MINE
