gone fishin'
___________

Here goes
another lifetime lost
to alcohol and fish
adrift on a endless lake
not unlike the
empty beer cans
floating
in the bottom
of my boat.

Gone Fishin'

Gone Fishin'
By a shady

Gone Fishin'
Wish I
could be that
kind
of fool.

Gone Fishin'
Instead
of just
a whishin'.

Titanic

Big huge boat sinks
Women vaguely look like me speak
"You'd love the Historical Costumes."
following me, try make me watch
big boat sink

I have more chest hair than Leonardo DiCapprio.

Okay.

"Blockbuster buys up mom-and-pop stores, eliminates all of their
offbeat and potentially offensive films, and then fills the empty
space with 80,000 copies of Titanic."

Heck, everyone knows that.
