A baby has been crying for an hour.
Now a choir is singing at 5am.
On Saturday nights, yuppies party.
A beautiful blond changes her hairstyle four times before leaving.
I sometimes hear people doing it.
Couples fight.
The smell of smoking weed.
Dogs begging to be let back in from the balcony.
A Harley Davidson is being warmed up. It drowns out every sound & every thought like a jackhammer.

would this party and this weed be coming from the same place?

if so, i would go over there and say "look, you have two choices...invite me in or knock it off"

Friday night, staying in drinking.
But no, someone requests your presence
And a car is sent.
Arrive to an otherwise empty house
The beer and wine flow forth back by the fire.
Meet the Danish.
A long hot Saturday just tryin to stay cool.
An outing, a silent movie, the band...
Many jokes exchanged as the meteors shoot through the somber sky.
The beach, my refuge.
A blanket, a flask, and a girl.
Late night ride to the airport, send the Danish home.
An early morning romp followed by a deep rest.
A later morning romp and an afternoon nap.
The a/c keeps the heat at bay, but not the sweat.
Some food, some fresh air, and a dip in the pool.
Bring her to climax three more times, just to kill the time.
The show starts at six.
And it all ends at nine with kiss.

Bright flame silently crawls up over the hills to the east
The bay on fire
I hear her stirring in the bedroom dreaming of her lost father
I savor the sweet bitterness of my first cup
Will you trust me completely?
I see my mom close her eyes for the last time
A jet climbs silently towards the horizon
I want to trust you but I can’t let go
Give me something tangible
The only answer is a sweet calm that gently soothes the pain

Here I sit, broken hearted
My window to the world opened
Impatient pressure - incumbent throne
I do not weep for what will be lost! Nay!
I weep for what will follow.
A Kings rejoinder interrupted.
WOE! Come Lord, tarry not too long!
Legs weak with phantom feelings a royal retreat ensues
Run away!
A missive to mark the passing
I tried to S**t, but only farted.

I woke early one morning
The Earth lay cool and still
When suddenly a tiny bird
Perched on my window sill,

He sang a song so lovely
So carefree and gay,
That slowly all my troubles
Began to slip away

He sang of far-off places
Of Laughter and fun,
It seemed very trilling,
Brought up the morning sun.

I stirred beneath the covers
Crept slowly out of bed,
And gently lowered the window
And crushed its f#@%ing head

Nice responses. Wasn't expecting that.

My eyes are dry. Tonight's a lot quieter than last night. I wasn't expecting anyone to read this.

There aren't enough hours in a day, yet I'm so tired I don't want to do anything. I hate sleeping. I'd rather watch Hitchcock films--but my eyes.

No naked people walking from their bed to the bathroom, no signs of alcohol or drugs in the air. The only boob tube I hear is my own. Who needs it. The only voice I hear is--none.

Look around for what I might have that's of any value, that might go for a few bucks on that website or a small, sad trade. Don't get me wrong; this isn't self pity.

Grown men walking up from the bars on Virgil Ave with arms around each other are either drunk or lovers. That couple there is on their 2nd date. She'll be leaving soon, for posterity. I can't tell if she wants to **** him. But then it's hard to tell on some girls.

No helicopters. No car alarms. One should get out of sleep-debt on a night like this. But it's only 9:50. I'd rather be awake.

Here I sit, broken hearted
Paid a nickel, only farted.
Yesterday I took a chance,
Saved my nickel, s**t my pants.

My grandpa just rhymes one of these out almost daily :D

Here I sit in the moonlight,
Forsaken by women and men,
Murmuring over and over
"I'll never eat onions again."

What's this thread supposed to be about?

Dark and lonely on the summer night.
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
Watchdog barking - Do he bite?
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
Slip in his window,
Break his neck!
Then his house
I start to wreck!
Got no reason --
What the heck!
Kill my landlord, kill my landlord.
C-I-L-L ...
My land - lord ...
Def!

Morning, the air is cool, but it won't last.

Coffee, a smart phone, and a cigarette are my company.

The grass is damp from the sprinklers, need to change the timer, high water bill last month.

Freeway noise in the distance, it's never rely quiet here. A train horn and jet engines join the distant din.

Humming bird at the feeder.

I'm glad to be alive, I'm glad to be here.

Sorry I'm late, are you asleep?
Yes I am can't it keep?
I had a wonderful time tonight.
I'm trying to sleep, and so goodnight.
I saw boring people and did boring stuff.
I don't care I've had enough.
