Pour some beer in my glass!
Inspiration has vanished into the mist
The clouds made a collar around my neck
Pain has joined the party
Pour some beer in my glass!
Inspiration has vanished into the mist
Words have blended with torment
Poisons are being delivered with every rain drop
The kids are climbing the walls
Inspiration has vanished into the mist
The clouds made a collar around my neck
It burns into the bones with pulsating flare
How I hated Mondays before…
Sunless Sundays are a Chinese ordeal
The clouds made a collar around my neck
Pain has joined the party
It’s her season
Pressure and swellings are also guests
My ears are crumbling under the screechy noise
Pain has joined the party
” October Feast ” ,is that rarity amongst poems , autobiographical; wrought with an intensity and courage of purpose that can only come from the self.
Thank you so much, Louis Kasatkin!
