"The folks are going out tonight In celebration of an abundance of years together What are you doing?" I dunno, said I Downing a few in solitude and respite I guess "Well come back over and chill with me You don't spend enough time with your brother." Isn't it funny how one who plays to get Nothing but high Knows how to play such a game of heartstrings Yet, maybe, tonight, barriers will be lowered For a correlation exists The higher the level of intoxicants The more openly spewing the mouth of the soul. But alas, my foolish return For the family reunion of convo Lasted all but ten minutes It was a good ten minutes Obliterated, brotherly, at once By the need to leave With a caravan of misguided friends In search of more of nothing but high "Be back in an hour" My intelligently stupid bro' says So I patriotically raised the middle digit As I slammed the door And headed for home Realizing that a fool's true victory Is in the conversations alone with self. |

Purity friend, In Vino Verite, Too bad they don't hang around long enough for it to spill out (the verity, not the vino). I've noticed that the "Crowned Princes of Excess" know well how to play the headstrings as well as the heartstrings. And oh! I, uh, gotta see a guy about...you know. I'll, uh, catchya later. ~Ed In reply to "which way do we go?", the answer was never "straight", but, "progressively forward". |

This was simply, poetically great! And, if it's any consolation Your brother will surely learn If even it has to be the hard way At least you showed your patriotism! I should join you in that fool's convo! We'd have a blast! Super writing, here! "So give life to your dreams, for there lies your survival, and cast your heart beyond those faded scenes, and I'll bring you through the storm |

the need to leave With a caravan of misguided friends In search of more of nothing but high i end up the same way every weekend... a salute from the door and a trip into the night, getting light headed and blitzed and waking miraculously back in bed. speaking of which, the streetlights are turning on... it's our struggle for identity that leaves us all unknown |
