Hump day is here and the ice is stuck to my car.

Wow what a crazy morning, tons of ice. I moved my car this morning so it was closer to the back door and as I stopped, the car slid about two car lengths, good thing I had snow at the end of the driveway or I would have made it to the road. Another quiet day at work so far, a few people are working from home today due to the roads being so nasty. Watched Goonies (again) last night. Boy what a great movie. It brings back such great memories. Oh Chester Cooperpot you crazy cat you. Well for all of you who know… the ball is rolling.

Here is that new poem I promised yesterday. You can see some of my influences in this one. Enjoy ya’ll, hope all is well, and drive safely.

Pissing Match.

Can you image one?
What would that smell like?
It would only consist of the older
for this is not a young man’s game

Yellow ribbons thru the sky
old naked men pushing and shoving
with urine and pot bellies
filled with cheap beer

One gets hit in the eye
begins to stutter his step
another shot this time in the mouth
he is now in trouble and goes down

The winner is never just that
he must walk home no cab or bus
the cold weather now rips thru his
damp clothing and shivers begin

He arrives home to clean and burn
the fight has ended his journey
the loser feels the same as
the winner Runs empty alone
