Ah the high life

It tastes magnificent
Truly a best of this place...

        I guzzle
      she quaffs
         I swill
      she swigs

           We
drink from the cup
        of love...

Not all words bring meaning
Some swill like seaweed and debris
Tangling and getting caught
Then drifting like a fisherman's rusty line...

The whole world is laughing at Trump
Whose thoughts seem to come from his rump
Disinfectant swill
Gave the world a chill
But clearly proved Trump is a chump!...

Autumns demure light 
When plants arouse for a last 
Display of beauty

When pigs get more swill to eat 
    Fattening them for Yule...

Here is a good tip for when back at school,
And you're impatient for the instant ramen to cool.
Place bowl in fridge or freezer to chill it.
Pour hot soup into cold bowl — much sooner to swill it....

Happy -
          feel lifting gifts arrive with shine on life's best days ...
          lumped steeled blitzes swill pain hued paints for strife's Monet -
Depressed ...

Sip of my life from the brown paper bag. 
  
Brown like down town, or clear 
  
like tap water, it doesn't 
  
f*ckIng matter, I'll drink it. 
  
I'll drink the swill from leftover 
  
cans at community college parties....

Mom used to drink this wine for a tonic,
I had no idea she meant a colonic.
So I snuck some of this swill,
moved more than an EX LAX pill
cause the gas sounds were quite polyphonic!

Sweet Confession Tide


Sweet briney trickles o’er my steps

Waves swill all sign here I have been

Draws misery below to ocean depths

Salts the wounds inflicted so obscene

Leaves my soul anew, fresh and clean.

Ahem this phlegm
In snotty body
Needs and pleads
A hotty-toddy.

Think a drink
Or pill will
Fight my plight
Kill this ill?

I might ply
With some rum
Debauch with scotch
Numb the glum.

Until that swill
Outs this bout
My poor sore
Snout will spout....

Just got the “bum's rush”, hoping for some direction
From this so-called specialist when it comes to treating depression
Five minutes listening to his fancy swill
Prescribes a different “magic” pill
Collected his huge fee and ushered in the next in succession...

Matt sat down to eat
A big fat juicy piece of meat
Looking down at his plate
He started to salivate.
Picking up his knife and fork
He tucked into the succulent pork
After he was satisfied
He took a bucket of swill outside
To feed his pigs in their pen
A new cycle begins again...

“A man convinced against his will
Is of the same opinion still”—
But though we will with all our might,
A sober thought still wins that fight.

A fairer rhyme I thus propose,
Our feckless follies to expose:
“A man convinced by stubborn will
Has surely swigged some sturdy swill.”...

I am just a girl, whom smile and laugh,
and sometimes feel a little sad.

     I am just a girl, whom is happy and glad,
and sometimes get mad.

     I am just a girl, whom swill and twill,
 and can not wait to adventure out
into this gigantic world.

     I am just a girl.

     God Bless...

Jack and Jill,
Got very ill,
When they went up the hill,
And found Uncle Lester's
Moonshine still,
'Cause stupidly, they had their fill.

Make of this, what you will.
Gotta' go now,
Time for me to take a pill,
And wash it down,
With this unGodly swill
From my faucet,
Supposedly water, seemingly...
With the ability to kill...

 The poet was young, just born -
her innocent words, forlorn.
Still, she was as euphoric as a pig in mud -
rolling around the sweet corn.

Her wit was swill, but she drilled.
Dictionary at her fingertips, she thrilled.
Playing, like a piglet with fodder,
one day, with practice, her verse killed.

Ah-choo!
Bless you!

Hanky?
Thank ye,

Got cold?
Blow nose...

Feel hot,
To trot!

Drug store,
Buy more!

Return,
Discern,

Took swill,
Nyquill,

Hanky
Panky?

Health crap,
Strength sap!

Hear snore,
Night bore,

Long sleep,
No reap,

No luck,
Gave up,

Frankly,
cranky,

Cold dour…
Shower.

Here is a good tip for when back at school,
And impatient for the ramen to cool.
Place bowl in fridge or freezer to chill it.
Hot soup in cold bowl — better to swill it.

When dining on instant ramen a lot,
One should never eat it straight from the pot.
That’s for a savage or an undergrad.
Use a bowl—make your existence less sad....

STRONGER THAN A MULE, 
THE FUEL
THE STRANGER, THE FOOL AND EVERYTHING COOL
THE FUEL
THE NATION THE LOVE 
THE FUEL,
THE PAIN AND THE WILL TO CARRY THE GRUDGE
THE NUDGE
THE FUEL
SWEETENED SIP/SLUG, SWEETENED BREATH 
CLOSER TO A ROCK STAR DEATH
THE FUEL
SWILL AWAY
ALWAYS MORE TO SAY
WHEN YOU ARE ON THE FUEL
REGRET LIKE A KICK 
THE FUEL
THE ***** THE DICK
THE FUEL...
