At the Edge by Joe CramerAt the edge of the abyss
I sit
nursing a cup
of coffee
when I want
a cigarette and
another shot
of Bourbon.
(It's capitalized.)
And then,
I barely drink
it simply inhibits
the way I think.
And of course,
I NEVER smoke,
I'd choke
from the fumes
the clog the rooms
of my mind.
Guess I should just forget
but then I'd fret
as my mind sits
at the edge
of my self-imposed
abyss.
All this
for your kiss. 05/09/2010 Author's Note: ... mental ramblings.....
