By Me?

I remember the times
All the sex, wine and lines
Waking up weeks later
Drenched in sick, feeling bitter
With no memory.

Now I lose the odd day
In a psychotic haze
And I find reams of paper, with words
Strung together
And I think, “By me?”

And the words are never better
Than living in that first stanza.


The line breaks and hanging line indents may be incorrectly formatted because I cannot be bothered to fiddle with the HTML. View the correct formatting in the full collection Juveni… Doesn’t Matter (The Grey-Salmon Book) (and subscribe at the top of the page).
