I blame me brother for the likes of this predicament,

but...

I, Zombie, Part Xii: the Remembering
It’s ten years later
I’ve finally hit paydirt
It’s the motherload

I didn’t strike gold
I struck a deal with myself
To help me grow old

Not act like a child
But first I had to grow up
And not act so wild

I’m...

The Lectures
I was strolling down a side street of our little town last night.
Did I say strolling, no that’s wrong; I was a sad and sorry sight,
And God knows what the time was, but I knew...

Last Goodbye
The Highwaymen softly play
Me And Bobby Magee
And for the next four hours 
Every single drink is free.

And stick it on the slate
Tonight we’re saying goodbye
To my best and oldest mate.

Not too long ago, back about 1929
Was conceived a boy, name of Danny Fine
Born on a Thursday, 24th of October

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...

Around the World In
AROUND THE WORLD IN ….

And circle the world in eighty days
Long before the plane

Using boat and train

Her
It was nearly summer break, 
 We met as she bumped into me. 
She fell and I helped her up,
That was only the beginning.

We spent summer together,
Being with her, it just felt right.

Premium Member You Are Scared of Me
Heavy lipstick and curled hair,

Tears down my face 
Throwing myself all over the place 
Filled with anger filled with hate 
Why did I leave my...
