Description
Sunset and a swig
Of whiskey to wake.
Blurs of yesterday past
And flecks of ash
On the table.

Yesterday was a nightmare
Full of forgotten lust.
Denim pants sat on
The bedroom floor.

I threw my cigarette
To the ash tray
And then sigh another
Goddamn rattling breath.

A voice echoed through
The shanty like fire.
She spoke ever softly,
"Coming to bed?"
