10/29/08 Tequila and other Trick-or-Treating Supplies

Like most people, I -
don't roll your eyes at me.
Not quite yet.
Save it for the punch line.

Like most people, I
wait all year for halloween.
Like a heroin addict in a poppy field.
Grow faster, god damn it!

And now, with only two days to go,
I find that I am losing sleep over the
sugar skulls.
They still have no delightful sugary frosting decorations.

I have not started assembling my costume,
and am not sure if I have enough vinyl records
and vhs tapes to make an impact.

And, more importantly, do I have enough liquor?

I said, DO I HAVE ENOUGH LIQUOR?

When I say have enough, you say liquor.
Have enough!

Impressive poetry. Happened to stumble upon your blog randomly; will come back periodically to read the poetry.
