Maybe You'll Get a Boner

By redmoon

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Stand up straight, maybe I'll get a boner. If only crack cocaine wasn't illegal, I'd be binging all the time. Became an anorexic heroin addict today, my life got fucked up with all these problems. I'm starving. Living in a cardboard box again. I cut a hole out of it and called it my wife. (sometimes it's my boyfriend, too) Ate a rotten carrot, thought it was a cigarette (lost my glasses) Got raped by an escaped convict, woke up with some sort of STD: don't know what the hell is commin' outta me when I piss. Oh yea, my cat died of hunger so I threw it in front of a car. Balmed the driver for killing my cat so he'd give me money. Didn't work. Got a bulet instead. I died 20 minutes ago, and you thought your life was bad. Written January 20th, 2002 © on Jan 20 2002 01:46 AM PST   0 • 10
