Trouble in BlueA Poem by CrowleySomewhere, someone is having a bad day....Angry trouble, double trouble, lover’s trouble, trouble in blue
Changing locks to filter unwanted guests, eating all the grapes Cramming porcelain knick knacks into a too big purse Making medical diagnoses from pill bottle bathroom reading Crashing sock drawers and gasping at the size of sex toys and reading material See my fate all dressed in blue A crawling sick, making due Fishnet stockings, sniffing glue Fetish tricks, come f**k me shoe Man trouble, car trouble, women’s trouble, trouble in red The morning crashes like an unwelcome disease Thoughts of muzzling my spouse, strapping my boss, prick Tempered only by my desire to avoid unsolicited prison sex The whiskey bottle shaped like Christ in despair, is salvation wet See my fate all dressed in red Paycheck bouncing, kids need fed Your voice grates inside my head By morning love, you’ll be dead Marriage trouble, heart trouble, tax trouble, trouble in blue Looking forward to the end of an uninteresting driftwood existence Hoping my tack is true and bold in the next life, creative Waiting for the ever after to unfold, tattling like a spurned sibling To the gods of reincarnation, wailing of my pitiless lack of imagination See my fate all dressed in blue Casket silk like morning dew Death bed secrets tried and true S**t bed head, lipstick askew Trouble, troubled, troubling……you See my fate all dressed in blue © 2018 CrowleyAuthor's Note
