Poem 11 from my chapbook "As Glamorous as a Kidney"

By Michael ButorovichPublished about a month ago 1 min read

I decided to come up and

Visit Chinaski with the few

Hours of daylight I have left.

{

Of course my room is still a

Mess and there is alot more

To clean up afterwards.

I spare it to

Enjoy myself and visit

A friend in spirit.

{

Writing means nothing.

It is only significant

To those who can feel it.

{

The life we live is what

Matters.

{

This page only shows that

I existed at one time.

The rest is up to those

I’ve touched to remember.

{

My life continues beyond

The cemetery I’ve come to

And beyond the bottle

I swim in.

{

I’m up here to relax.

{

Stress will come again.

{

Laugh out loud.

}
