Sunspots. By Dan Provost

Scrambled onto

death yesterday

While walking to

an AA meeting…

Realizing that motifs

to drink are only

chambers of suicide

jargon…

You become so

self-involved when

trying to give up on

another binge.

You feel lakes of

piss rising through

your sneakers…

A gun aimed

in every alley…

All because 200 beers

later—You’ve

determined…enough

is enough
