Beat Yesterday

(READ ALL TIM LABBE POEMS)


Beat yesterday.

That's all.

The comfort of
misery comes
easy

It skids over cold

clenching a bottle

It makes suicide
seem almost easy

That's all.

Pound it to the ground.
Crush in into oblivion,
‘til your knuckles are
raw and bloodied.

And if you're lucky
enough to awaken, ...

Read the full of Beat Yesterday
