• DAMN IT JAKE…
    by uc poika




    in the little woods that killed the highway noise
    and hid his favorite bar from the peering eyes
    of unintended guests and even the cops
    where in seclusion many forbidden lovers kissed
    and many inebriated souls made the choice
    to purge themselves though management who advised
    they first learn to control themselves and stop
    was also often more disgusted than pissed
    and soon distracted turned their eyes away
    just like they did for Jake my distraught friend
    whose madness stole his money and took his pay
    and now threatened to leave him locked up in the pen
    he stepped inside the woods as if to pee...
    he put the gun to his head… the rest is history…
