    The Things a Drunk Will Do

      Before dawn, Highway 6 bridge. Mallard ducks wobble across wet pavement. I scatter bread, grab my big black garbage bag, take a few morning swigs to knock off the shakes, vomit it back up.   City sleeps, dumpsters smell of rot. I climb in, sifting through cat shit, discarded...

    • Another dark slice of the side of life most of us abhor and pretend isn’t there at all. It is so difficult trying to picture you there, my friend, so hard to think of anyone other than make believe movie made bums living hard, rough lives no real, educated man who writes so beautifully could possibly live among and be himself, hanging on to humanity by the slenderest thread. You show me parts of myself in these seedy climes, just another few tarifs or heists of my rent away from joining you on your morning quests. You bring tears to my tired morning eyes.

    • Thanks, my friend. I appreciate it.

    • Freaking great piece with the real life descriptions dude, tight work

    • “trying not to get hit by their apathy,
      daylight swallowing my quiet survival.”

      That right there sums up so much in this world. Identity means nothing without a trendy label to too many. And those struggling to survive, invisible. The undecided dawn was one helluva exclamation point on the situation. Another solid piece of reality

    • Your pen has power, Naajir. You weld it like a trident of discourse. Because you see that discourse and use it against itself.
      Always well spoken with a keen wisdom.

      • This was one of those vibes that started one way but ended up
        on a more inspirational tone. I like those moments.
        Big thx for such a profound comment, Styxian

        Much respect

    • Powerfully penned, Naaj. Excellent write my friend. This has a flow that would make great song lyrics. Nicely done per usual brother. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • You read my mind in regards of putting it into song format. I’ve been in and out if Suno
        and I like how they piece things together. Big thx for droppin by, Damian.

        Much respect

    • We read this thinking of all the people now wanting to claim innocence, The supporters of Nero and Caligua who supported the emperor even after discovering their madness. The mad rulers campaign on their sickness and still found themselves in power. There is no depth to the madness, you lose yourself using the normal routes to navigate. Tight

      • Great analysis, bro. We gotta stay grounded in our covenant in times like this
        Thx or droppin in.

        Much respect

        Naaj
