THE CONVERSATION

By Leonard Pigg

The tomcat wandered down the alley

After a trip to the valley

Stinking from drinking

Proving himself the Bar King

Amid the piss-soaked masses

Stumbling around, acting like asses

They try to kill each other through pilsners

Or picking fights with killers

Everyone has warrants or a P.O.

When hell breaks loose, everyone will G.O.

Avoid the party lights and sirens

While avoiding all the violence

Pumped up from a fight

Engorged with delight

Seeking a warm place to stay

Hunting for a lover to lay

Pass out from sensory overload

When all you wanted was someone to hold
