Clout: Vital Elixir - Take Only as Prescribed
To make it on the stage, in this day and age, I'm convinced, Contacts and Clout are what it's all about. Woke up this mornin', feelin' all washed out, went down to the local drugstore, for a bottle of Clout, the druggist he said, 'Sorry son, we're all sold out.' Woke up this mornin', feelin' all turned about, went to my...

Cold Turkey
Cold turkey never tasted sweet. If you see me smile then I am probably lying to you. I am so used to that mask it looks natural. I hide because I don't trust you. You are there for me but I think it's because of the performance. The shallows are where we live, everything is...

A roast turkey sat on the table, He would have flown off, If he was able. The humans put a stop to that. When they filled him with stuffing, Then lathered his breast with fat. He wished he was a chicken today, After they plucked his feathers, He'd run away. But he wasn't chicken, not at all, He was a turkey, Proud and tall. Turkeys have got...

Cold Turkey For Old Turkeys
Can I be seeing what I think I am seeing? Those who would have sold their own grandmother, Before the outbreak, Now enduring the cold for the sake of the old turkey, Those whose limbs were so jerky, Surviving on beef jerky for the sake of the old turkey. And am I seeing yet other turkeys who never met a wild...

I lost a month of my life. Being sick or injured can do that to you. I could spend another month pouting But I choose to try to regain my energy and be alive. I went off my pain pills – cold turkey. I went off my anxiety pills – cold turkey. Here is what my doctor said to me. “You...

Cold Turkey Lover
If love is like a drug, as said, I guess she must have made me high; this junkie took his fix in bed and thought, I'm hooked until I die. But after highs, I hit a low, and craved her loving drug again; one awful day, she told me 'no': I'd never felt such wretched pain. I did cold turkey for a while and...

Cold Turkey
When you quit smoking, you always go cold turkey and you become very mean. Every time you try to quit, you turn into a monster when you go without nicotine. The last time you quit, you threw the microwave and hit me in the head. I was out for days, the doctor thought that I was dead. You washed...
