The liver... a stiff drink...

a promise
no more men for me
then in a moment of self-pity
your smile was there
spreading hope over me
like warm jam...

Self-Pity
I’ve dug this hole too deep,
Laying here, and all I can do is weep.
Soothing sympathy is a rare thing for me
As I cry tears of sorrow and empathy....

Some days it just doesn't go
Often when it rains or snows...
Storm clouds gather in the skies of my brain
Releasing rivers of self-pity and pain...

Wife
Self-pity is my mistress and my muse.
Her softness is erotic and sublime,
And later when she vampires all my time
I’ll bid her leave. But she’ll refuse....

Spot Very Tight
Caught yourself in a spot very tight?
No way out, no one else in sight
Wallow in self-pity
Or think and be witty
Doesn’t matter the route, be mighty and fight...

Just not up for it today

Tell the fellow to go away and come back tomorrow

The Unmoved
I am a disaster,
wallowing in self-pity.
Delusions strong,
paranoia in overdrive.
I am stalemate.
Stagnant.
Watching life pass,
and I cannot move.
No dreams, nor nightmares.
Life hurts.
Checkmate....

You Either Make It Happen
You either make it happen
Or you chase a better opportunity
The one thing you do not want to do
Is drown in self-pity
Now is the time
To get it together
Make something of yourself
Get at it and do better...

This has not been the greatest day. I cannot make my worries go away. For what the answer to my question is, I will fight because I want to live. I will not weep in self pity or sorrow. I will shed light for better tomorrow....

Loneliness Is a Stale Donut
Loneliness is a stale donut
Forgotten and left in box
For how many days now?
How many days!
Takes as self-pity
Eating the donut it tastes like pain
And sickness rising in my throat
For I remain and the box I throw out...

I Miss My Yellow
Red tears,
And black filled fears,
Of all the harrowing years,
I held in my diseased heart.
Does my excruciating soul even know?
How deep my self pity flows?
How much my torture grows?
When will my yellow really start?...

Love Chemistry
Love Chemistry...
I dive deep in your ocean blue eyes
In pursuit of pearls of emotions,
Ego,
Self-pity,
Pride,
All dissolved on the way...
I the solute,
You the solvent
WE the solution of Love...

Testing Hope
moments test us
months possess us
days go by in etched fog of illness
too clear to be a lesson
no time for self pity
moments of zero pain
make the heart sing
restore possibility
almost opens the future
cautiously, I test hope...

Conceited Love
What ills you elicit with your mordacious tongue
shackled am I, while you trifle with my love.
You horde my affections with a cartridge of conceit
then loiter in self pity as I, wizened, exit with relief.
