Math taught me how to keep track of my six pack


Oh my god I didn’t make it, I didn’t even come close, my breath is battered with beer, my mind is toast. I had two seconds on the wagon now I’m dragging behind, my flesh feels so warm but the rocks I’m pulled over shred my mind. No one else to blame, dancing with my own shame and all I can claim is that I need help. When your hands slip off the wheel and you crash they call it an accident but I look to my right and that one beer I was going to have had babies and maybe as June Fairchild dies of liver cancer I have the true answer to the prediction of all addiction. Hey Jack Kerouac is it a fact that your tour of Big Sur cannot procure anything but the final cure of death by addiction? But can I stop, surrounded by crops of thorns on the long stems of roses. The buds bloom so far above my head as I run through the fields and find the deception yields nothing but cuts over every inch of my flesh. Can I survive the cuts without being saved by zero or play the hero without entering the bed of roses prepared to bleed for all who feed as I disassociate my mind from the wounds they are going to find?
