I will

Sit by your bed side

Holding your hand after an attempted suicide.

I will

Make sure your Grandma is comfortable

When she’s dying.

As sundown plows vacancies of worthless earth

Before sunrise explodes the midnight crows

Warning of another victim under

If I were a man of wild horses

 

I would be able to run free

of indignation and angst

to move and flow with the wind

 

I would be able to run free

of injustice and servitude

anticipation morning call

anxiety never stalls

with a quick fix

mix of alcohol;

no alarms-no fear

to lighten the load.

Watch how the ice cubes fight

to float in tequila and orange

That jagged rocks hide in shallow murky waters

drained your account
on beer again
