Best Drink Down Poems

The town that I was born in was a small and ‘one horse’ place,
where no one held a secret and we knew each other’s face.
Nothing seemed to ever change but then we seen the myth explode
when a mining company opened up a few miles down...

I sin in shapes while the dozer beats us both down
By one or two, my thumb is fingering my cell phone
After 3 or 4 I've got your voice choking the airwaves

Baby the beat in my heart...

“I heard a note once,.”  Charles said with conviction and bass from his gut.
Every night with chuck we reached this point ,
Existential storytelling, usually after four drinks or eight drinks.
Talking about government and it’s corrupt nature, the idiocy and beauty of religion,
And even the...

Put that drink down
Stop looking down and look at me now
What has gone bad for you?
What made you so low like this?

I don't give a damn about others
But I care a lot about you
I can hold you if you wanted to
Though not much that I...

He paced the living room, furious with himself. What had he gotten himself into? Why had he agreed to Laila’s request to see her family? Here he was alone…all alone in the house with the only person in the whole world he had come to...

You hurt me
I wish I could hurt you back
I really wish I could
With all my heart and soul
I wish I could inflict pain
Searing....scathing...ascorbic pain
I wish I could force you to taste
The salt of the tears
Not a lick
Gulp them down
So many....
Drink down the tears
I cry in...

I'm Sorry that I wasn't enough for you to be around
I'm sorry I wasn't important enough for you to put the drink down
I'm sorry that I always craved your love
I'm sorry that I was your son, and you wouldn't give me a hug

I'm sorry for...

   stealing my breath
like a baseball bat to the gut
which I would rather take
than having

Ghost stories are for kids, not a big deal.
Well that's what I thought, until it became real.
Several years ago I got a chance to go on vacation.
But what my friends and I saw was an aberration.

My friends aunt came over to here to visit. 
So...

I sit and I drink
I drink as I think
I think I should pour
My drink down the sink

I sit and I ponder
The thoughts that I think
I wonder what's lost
Down the drain in the sink

I sit on the porch
And stare at the sky
The stars and the moon
Twinkle...

(To the Spartan Queen) 

Nel mezzo del cammin di nostra via
Mi inoltrai in una selva oscura
  
‘They drive horses down this hill’ 
She said, 
‘They take them to drink down there, that pool, there’ 
She said it as though it mattered 
As though I should...

Mine courtship and marriage with deadly obsession...

As September daze will soon arrive
recollections from a 
psychologically checkered  past
loom large recalling  
tragic storied days of mein kampf.

Circa early nineteen seventies:
As a mere slip of a shy lad,
(who knew nothing 
about powder milk biscuits),
I experienced unfettered...

He always loved the song 'Lady In Red'
so I decided to mess with his head,
The dress I wore showed cleavage and some legs
was flaming red with strands of silver thread.


I pinned my hair up with some silver pegs
and took a drink down to the very...

I spent so much time waiting for a hero, hoping for someone to save me
Someone to mend my heart, a kind soul to take me
A beautiful person to talk to me and keep me safe
I wasted so many years waiting for a hero, but this...
