Random Poem:

voices from the criminals #1 triggers
unknown

my son and i used to
 1
drive down to galveston every summer,
 2
just the two of us.
 3
my sister and her husband had a little house
 4
right there on the gulf.
 5
we'd go fishing and boogie boarding,
 6
pitch a pup tent on the beach.
 7
we bought this star chart from a flea market
 8
taught ourselves the little and big dippers
 9
a few others i can't remember.
 10
sometimes i think of those days
 11
how my drug use fucked it all up.
 12
pity, i guess,
 13
wanting to run away from myself -
 14
 
 
is my biggest trigger.
