Best Three Sheets To The Wind Poems

I sing a song of three.
There’s Larry, Curly, Moe;
the Ego and the Id
and the Super Ego.

Three Kings of the Orient
are known as three wise men.
Showing up at Christmas too
in song are three French hens.

Rock, paper, scissors -
three gestures with the hand;
tricycles; three-legged races -
 things...

Once in a blue moon I have been told
The cliché’s clan gets together with the Catch Phrase posy

If I have told you once I have told you a thousand times this story or are you the last one to know?

Well, it all started for no...

I pegged them out on my clothes line,
   Like puppets on a string.
   Those baggy pants fit for a clown,
   Such laughter they did bring.

   That claret shirt, high as a kite,
   And three sheets...

Inebriated
Three sheets to the wind
Bent, sideways strut
We have all seen the results....
Our minds disconect and ramdomly fire through nonfunctioning organs
such as the thickly paralyzed tongue with no back up thought processes
Rational actions are no longer possible and the mind imagines greatness
Superperson from local pub nation....

Alcohol
Social lubricant?
Laughing, falling, fighting.
Three sheets to the wind!
Drunk...

A thousand times I have heard, 
“There but for the Grace of God...” 
but until today that phrase, 
struck me as somewhat odd. 
 
   The old Cowboy who staggered by, 
was three sheets to the wind. 
but he swept off his hat...

I was in a bar in Texas,
in the eastern back-country,
with three beers already inside
and another draining quickly.
It was a perfect redneck bar,
the kind of place I love,
with sawdust on the floors below
and taxidermy up above.

A man drank in a corner,
wearing a battered hat.
he said nothing...

The id, the ego and the super-ego.


You and I, we have a connection.
Let us be joined at the hip; my hearts resurrection.
I rise once more to beg, to implore!
For a chance to be loved by a woman I adore.


I am infatuated and this desire cannot...

Kirsten tried to talk, but couldn’t find the words,
So Endicott nodded and continued to speak:
“When you’ve been in Hell for millions of years,
you’ll do just about anything to get yourself free.

“And when I escaped, and came to this town
one hundred sixty of your years ago,
I...

In the corner of a pub
There sits an old sea dog
He tells the same old stories
His mind is full of fog

“Ahoy, me hearties! Pass the rum
And I’ll spin you a yarn of old
About the time I was a pirate
A tale I’ve rarely told”

“I’ve sailed the...

His fits, in a fitted, offend
With a top sheet, he made his amend
So he opened a store
And he drank a bit more
And now he’s three sheets to the wind


H/T, 2nd verse for Daisy Ward's The Mind...

homeward bound three sheets to the wind
floating like a butterfly from a night with some friends
singing hello walls at the top of his lungs
hoping that the gin doesn’t give him the bends

little miss betty with a pan in her hand
waits on the porch for the...

Daddy searched for the good life, but it could not be found.
Momma got tired of it all and went running around.
Sarah climbed up to the sky with no way to get down.
That’s when she learned how to scream without making a sound.

Now poor Sarah will...

I have fashioned my desire from Carpathian obsessions,
Indulging in the calm between extremes.
It’s a blood and iron promise that sets my soul alight,
Embarked upon a pilgrimage of dreams. 
Standing on the foredeck in a silent, moonlit trance,
Sipping from a chalice rimmed with stars.
Knowing when I...

Taken the high road 
Every damn time
Ending up in the gutter 
No matter how hi I climb
Saddle up my high horse  
Lead it to water
Same creek different source
One paddle is all they offer
High strung out and out of sorts
Last blast comes with no laughter
Burning...
