Habitual

Habitual

A Poem by Davidgeo
"

.

"

lifting weights in the morning

drinking coffee

smoking grass

to mitigate the fact

that my hands are shaking'

    from the caffeine

from the adrenaline flush coming from exercise

now overtly trembling i'm like a tea cup poodle

on crack

and i'm likely to smoke more grass

then in comes the thought of eating breakfast

with a cup of tea and some weeds

over

eggs and bacon

and hash

that's me routinely in the morning

contemplating my first heart attack


and i will smoke cigarettes and drink whisky tonight

my exercises under moonlight

help me contemplate things

like my first heart attack

and how good my body will look on an operating table

Vanity wins, always. It's why dying young is so appealing.

(Be sure to brush your teeth and comb your hair before you go. I've never been to an open casket viewing in which the deceased is smiling a big toothy grin. You should definitely put that in your instructions.)

Thank you sincerely for your read requests. Such a pleasure always.
