Dripping whiskey
Inhale on the acrid
Red tipped cigarette
Breathe dragons fire
On the exhale
Footfalls scuff
Well worn soles
Silver tipped
Cowboy boots
Squint into the sun
Retain a focus
Of what has become
From the best of me
Essence of kewl
Dressed so silently
Draw another
Absorb another side of me
And exhale
Damnation years
Served in toil
Wear the scars well
Every mark tells a story
Hesitate on the apology
No one ever looks at me
A draw on the end
I tip my hat
Throw my cigarette to the sea
