One Should Never Surf The Internet Looking For Art While Drinking Whiskey

 

Everyone is an artist, writer,

poet or some sort of bullshit

creative type.

The shitty “artists”

are the famous ones,

famous for making shit.

The real artists,

the ones who are greatness

work, create and starve.

Marketing is king,

art (good or bad) is relegated

to clicks and likes.

A Bit Of Something I Am Working On

She dropped her bag on the floor

and plopped all 95 pounds

of her body into the seat next to me.

She had a smell of cigarettes,

day old Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific

and bus toilet sanitizer.

She had just smoked a cigarette,

washed her hair

in some bus station bathroom the day before

and, as far as the toilet smell,

if you use the bus toilet

while rolling down the great american highway

you will have that lingering smell

until your next chance

to wash your clothes.
