I've lived a life of madness and mayhem. I’ve had diabetes for 50 years and have been addicted to one substance of another for 45 of those years. It has been a beautifully joyful and painful schizophrenic ride: drugs, booze, women, music, writing, and learning with each new success or defeat. This blog tries to come to grips with all of life's fractures and contains everything--even you.

THE OSCARS
I've not gone
to see a movie
in twenty years.
Most new movies,
like new songs & music,
escapes me.
But I tune in
for those golden statues
and the graceful hands
who fondle & covet them.
I still love movies,
but what I crave
are cleavages,
long finely crafted legs
& a body that stops
at my eye's edge.
I love that as much
as a well crafted phrase.
God's wheel of roulette
hitting a double zero.
