Crooked On Phonics

Another head knocking a*s shocker from the Local Ugly Maniac.

I am a horrid drug addict

It begins with the tap tap of the street syringe that gives life to the off time beats of the music

Please don’t mind my ADHD ADD because I must have my XYZ’s confused

My diagnosis is hopeless

And the doctor has a prescription for imaginary ailments

while drugstore cowboys inhale that

Ex-pe-a-li-docious

I bump lines of blue curves and red margins

Imagining armies of green clovers, purple moons and blackened sins

Unlock mysterious miseries in the smoky trees of memory seeds

Puff

Puff

Give

fool, don’t f**k up my rotation

A touch of exhalation, shotgun Angel’s dust into the faces of this idea pregnant nation

I am an intellectual crack Pusher

More bags of creative tar than Spiders from Mars and the Cat Ziggy who played guitar

And heroin?

She’s All in

 The female protagonist with more cures than acetaminophen

Stacks of metaphoric alcoholic nectar never runs dry

We are all drunk on the minds of a thousand lies of our inner eye

And the addiction grows in every time the rain dries and a relative dies

And the addiction grows in every time we swallow pills and magic paint spills  

And the addiction grows when Meth labs blow causing blood flows to create stanzas of despression

And we create a session of lines of impeccable truth

And spines of books are written in the life lines and across sky lines of the youth

I say stay hooked on the Phonics

Addicted to dream tectonics

Detoxing is the pleasure of pen to paper verbonics

How do you know you have a drug problem?When the cop tells you to walk the wtite line you get down on your knees and try to snort it.
I love the poem.especialy the meth lab blowing.people don't realize how dangerous those meth labs can be.it is true that all that cool shat you love o read was mainly written on a whole lot of drugs.I am a mommy now,so I changed my ways but back in the day I could write all night and half way through the next day.keep up the good work .I think it's cool and I don't care how many drugs it took to write it

Brilliant!! Genious!!! LOVED IT!!! :)

In the words of Huey Lewis, I want a new drug...and may have just found it. This was intense and crazed and true. Brilliant! I just wish you'd spelled Ex-pe-al-i-docious correctly...it kinda ruined the whole thing for me. Never heard of spellcheck?

[Nobody.]

Love the allusions to Friday and Mary Poppins in the same piece....brilliant. 'dream tectonics' is a killer concept...and the point of the piece is just stunning.....I agree, if I didn't write like I do....I'd be a junkie shivering on the floor of some seemingly abandoned smackhouse somewhere with lots of smog warnings and drive-by shooting alerts. Good s**t man!

And you have a fan as well.

Cheers!

Wow.. wait, I think I meant WOW.. you always drop the hammer when you write, not only the words that bite at heels, like little lap dog, but in your reviews as well. This stings as much as the needle being pushed into a dry hardened vein. Way to go shithead!

Painfully honest, and powerfully voiced, you express the devouring darkness so well...

The smoke has most definately lifted Oh Wise One.
Let me get lost in the description, the rhythm of it all. F*****g Excellent. I'm digging blue curves and red margins.

[FallenHeroXx]
