Someone Who Isn't Me
took those pills and visited
a website just in case.
I mean, it's not like they wanna die.
Maybe they do but the thing I like about old people
is they use the internet more than folk like me.
I have questions, like anyone else.
Do things go horribly wrong
when port and mineral water
mix with klonopin at low doses
and then you piss all over the floor?
Heh heh. Is there a doctor in the house?
No way man says a guy from a drugs forum
Why would a 19 year question me on this site?
If you keep talking SWIM he posts
Tell them to end it so we can all breathe easy.
He webcams a beach party in California.
Yo old man see what you're missing out on?
Through the flickering flames of a bonfire
he flaunts a bikini clad bimbo
who sucks a beer like a penis.
He yanks his pyjama string and mutters incoherently.
Say man. Did you say 'Oh yeah baby?'
He splutters like a Shakespeare tragedy, sips more port.
That's youth. You get it now old fella?
He knows, even though he can't hear. He swallows the pills.
The teen disconnects and leaves him alone in the council flat.
Youth can't appreciate the collection of his mother's glassware.
Or the books. The countless photos.
In a battered tin box are tarnished medals, honourable discharge
dogtags from forgotten comrades.
Nobody will ever hear that story.
SWIM lost all feeling in his legs
and I never caught the bus to his house.
His three seater sofa isn't very comfortable.
So what if its leather? He isn't special because of it.
But I suppose when SWIM is dead, the sofa will be part of my eulogy.
I posted loving symbols before he died, but is it enough?
My dressing gown needs washing
and wine and pills send me off
to the perpetual theme of Boston Legal
like Denny Crane with mad cow disease.
Finally SWIM measures his doses right
He told me once I was like his teddy bear
Why don't I feel alone knowing he is leaving?
a purring ginger kitten reminds me.
Port really does suck but not so bad
with a dash of mineral water. He pours it down the drain
and sucks a glacier mint to hide the secret habits.
That is what SWIM told me before he signed off.
I wracked my brains on how to express my love.
Honestly I did but I prayed he knew what I meant
when I posted my most heartfelt goodbye.
xxx ooo
