As you were

Poems to visit....

So we were chilling

yes we were chilling

Like Captain cold and Mr. Freeze

in the same room

Then After a few some friends came thru

.....No party................................................

Now what the hell do you think that this is

Can't we all come thru chill have a few beers

Be the envy of our enemies and a few our peers

I just checked my papers and I'm in the clear

...................I'm sorry...................................

A great individual though

Team like a pack of sardines

But wrapped like individual gum

Straight Savage but more Wolverine than Attila the Hun

Feeling appealing like a bank account of a million and one

........................................ . I'm stalling......

Like a restroom

Since I think I'm the shit,

this the best room

Tearing through everyone's nose like a monsoon

Cause it's smell the opposite of perfume

More of a mix of paint thinner and spoiled food fumes

It's got the paint Tearing itself off the wall

In this room and the room next to the next room

It's quiet outside

so it's bout time I leave out of this room.

As I walk out

I stumble over the bodies that passed out from the noxious air

.................................................. As You Were
