drowning sorrows

boredom is always
a concern for me
 
too much time on 
my hands leads to 
endless thoughts
of death
 
drowning sorrows 
in liquor
 
and dreams of pissing 
on my father’s grave
 
i remember when 
my imagination
still had a sense 
of wonder
 
of course, i had 
money and drugs 
during those days
 
now i have neither
 
soon, i feel like they 
will be taking me 
behind the old 
barn
 
and we all know 
what happens
there
