A CONVENIENT CONFESSION

I have something to tell you

but I've forgotten it


something to do with getting

real and facing your shit like an adult


ah I remember what made me forget...

that part about being an adult...


heh what horseshit...

we're twelve years old our entire lives


and promises of heaven sound like tall tales

told  by a drunken uncle who wants to squeeze your peeshe


and be absolved by the rest of the family

for being the wastrel...the barfly disgrace...



shit...what hooey people come up with to excuse themselves

and call it self-forgiveness...
