                  Leave the old photo album
                   On the roadside
                   Between Cleveland
                   And hell
                   Forgetting memories
                   She spits at you
                   Drive off in your mint 56 Mustang
                   Toward Vegas
                   Drunk
                   Gambling slurred emotions
                   At Elvis's all night wedding chapel
                   Waking up to a stranger
                   Looking like Dr Ruth
                   Bleed happy thoughts
                   Till you float away
                   And never have
                   To come back here again
                   Laughing all the way to Nashville
                   Write a top 40 song
                   About a life gone wrong
                   Swimming in pools of Washingtons
                   Till your Dr Ruth impersonator
                   Wakes you up with an image of big lips
                   Coming straight for your face
                   With a big slobbery kiss
                   The perfect end to country song
                   That sadly is your life
                   After too many hits of acid.

Ask me about my book!

smiling...first yer in drag and now yer on acid--you havin' a mid life crisis Brad?

and I actually know what life is like after too many hits of acid. sigh. Skip Dr. Ruth, replace Vegas with New Orleans, and the Elvis impersonator with a Steve Perry wanna be/has been and, yep, you've got it.

Enjoyed much Brad.

i enjoyed this poem very much, but liking country music myself I don't think that would be the perfect ending to a country song. keep up the good writing though.

I was drawn in by the title and found myself laughing by the end. On days like today, anything that makes a person laugh is not a bad thing

(giggles) Why not, there's plenty of reflux and Visine and Pepcid AC as there is already in country right now! (sigh) This is wonderfully deep, sweet friend, we al love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Dan, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
