How did I not have this in my favorites before?
I'm sorry kid cargo... I love your poetry. I don't know how I missed it. This is brilliant. Fine line between genius and crazy, I wonder if we ever really see it. Or maybe there isn't one, we just tell ourselves that. ;)

Is this the poem you mentioned in your comment to my short story "Coffee"? It's haunting and beautiful--containing a lot in just a few lines. Thanks for sharing.
And thanks for commenting on "Coffee". The question begs to be asked--what's your first favorite drink, if coffee is your favorite?

Freeman, sometimes talking to yourself is the only way to get intelligent
conversation. It's highly underrated. I wish panhandlers would stop saying "God bless you" everyime I refuse to give them money to feed their drug habit. It's dishonest, what they really mean is "F* you".

Billy, I was that man today. I found myself grumbling alone in the steam
room at my gym. Oh dear.
