VOWS

with this rig,

i deflate my ego

to have had and to have sold

to destroy and disobey

to throw it all away

rock bottom turns to quicksand

she told me

“it can always get worse”

then

she proved it

[ed. note: yeah this is way-ass thrown together. i’m gonna work on it and make it better and we’ll get it out there to ya]

RIP DAD

there is no constitution that is not deliverance

there is no delivery that is not from point a

to point z

and all points in between

x up and b down

down the stairs into the garage

with the bmw

that your father gave you for moving back home

and then took away

his last words were

don’t park it somewhere the top will get cut up

the top got cut up and all you could think about was how in the fuck you were gonna explain it to him

then you woke up the next morning as hungover as you’d ever been and found out that he was dead

whew. now you don’t have to tell him.
