three pseudo-drunken pieces

I.

here i am in this bar
wishin' i was playin' my guitar
or gazin' in my baby's eyes
or not tellin lies
or livin' the hell
outta some
evening in june
while there's time....

II.

here i am in this bar
and the walls are gettin' 
all funny
and the girl next to me
is gettin'
more beautiful by the
double
shot.
i do not
know why i'm here.
so i'll drink 'til i remember.

III.

i don't wanna write pseudo-
drunken poetry....
i don't wanna wear a tie
i don't wanna be the bad guy
and i don't know why
what is good
is complicated
is so hard
and what is cheap and easy
kinda sucks...
