    • You write this story with such clarity and weave it into an engaging scene that reaches out and rivets my attention. Great poem.

    • You have expressed a real life tale with honesty and clarity.
      I have been there. Got locked up for being drunk in public myself once.
      I think I said to a police officer “Your a C…U…N…T. I didn’t say it i just spelt it out.
      He didn’t understand. When he realised what I was saying I was thrown in the van.
      I they took my clothes and gave me some grey prison scrubs. When I sobered up I started singing prison songs.
      “He’s in the jailhouse now.” and Locked up by Akon. Some counties in England are stricker on booze than others. I have been out of my mind all over England, but Yorkshire was the place they locked me up. Don’t do it in Yorkshire.

      Thanks for sharing this poem. I am glad to know I am not the only one.

      regards
      James

    • This sounds like such a Midwest thing. Great telling of the night!

    Drowning in Depravity

    • Karma has an army…& her day is still coming. It’s interesting watching the different responses people have to the insanity right now. Solid piece here

      • Sometimes I feel we have been taken over by monsters and they are protected by fools. It’s hard to wrap my head around how this is reality. A pedophile as president is pathetic, but he is unqualified in ever way. Words can’t say how disappointed I am with his supporters.

        Thanks for the read. Much appreciated.

    • hello dearest Nick I know what you mean you know God loves his sheep but he has confided in me he loves his macabre people more…why do think this world is as it is? the devil if there is one is a fall guy we will burn someone in effigy and call it good at the end lol 💕

      • I believe in a God. Whatever that may be. I think good and evil is just part of the plan. After all good and evil is really perspective. I can get over someone being evil, it’s the cowards and hypocrites that blow my mind. They turned being a boot licker into an art. Not sure if I believe in a Haven and hell but if one person is deserving of it it’s Trump.

    • Powerfully penned, Nick. I get where you were going in this one my friend. It’s a wicked world out there. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • It was a wicked world. Now it’s just a bat shit crazy world haha. Totally mind blowing how so many of us are just stupid. Even people you would think would be better than this, but nope. It’s a level I can’t understand.

        Thanks for the read, friend.
