north wind heavy jacket type of winter morning
I went downtown but still couldn’t shake that ominous feeling
that was mugging me and wouldn’t let go
boats bobbing in the harbor, early morning silver water
walking down Michigan Avenue for the 10,000th time
walking down Michigan Avenue for the first time
today was a morning when the bars couldn’t open fast enough
vodka, whiskey, cognac?...which one do I want? I can’t decide, can you give me all three?
overcast all day; never saw the sunset/dark earlier than usual
of course, it’s hard to see a sunset from a dark bar
imagining what might be behind a door is often more satisfying than actually seeing what’s there
I couldn’t find a soulmate, so I went with a Coffee-mate
it’s all so depressing if you think about it; therefore I shan’t think about it
let’s make the world something we can all enjoy
after a few drinks I think it’s been a good week so far
I’ve written what I think are five pretty damn good poems so far
so far so good so far
I seek only quiet restful afternoons and dreams filled with contentment
somebody comes over and offers me something
no thanks, I’d rather just drink
spirit, I really need you to be with me tonight
went home and put on some old jazz
you can never go wrong with pizza and Coca-Cola, even at 1 a.m.
found an old movie to watch and fell asleep
cold pizza and Coca-Cola breakfast--breakfast of champions
