| Dead Drunk My father tightly gripping his escape, (He knows Jim Beam better than he knows me) with drunk talks (vows he forgot he made) The bulletproof stage, he's Superdaddy, when he picks a fight with the biggest guy, let's him throw the first punch before he'd swing. Next morning he's greeted to a black eye, a hangover, and tries remembering. "If he held a promise like he holds drinks, he'd be father of the year.", my mom says. His eyes always red, his breath always stinks, friday, dad hits every bar on the rez. Dad digs his grave with every shot that's tipped and buries himself with a bottle in his grip. -Jonathan Garfield |
