Thirty-five

Head down, old man
gnash on your youth
throw an apple at the back of your girlfriend’s head
break a skateboard over your knee
guzzle a six-pack and drive your mom’s car
smoke cigarettes in a McDonald’s parking lot
take bong rips standing up
drive to a record shop hours away
have sex with your girlfriend in the public swimming pool 
and the shower
only put five dollars in the tank
think anyone older than you who’s not rich and famous must have done something wrong
have your mom buy you a new skateboard
Come on, old man, gnash well 
drink all that god damn booze and cough syrup
take them pills 
stay wasted
waste all that time
make excuses, old man
keep on lying 
stare at yourself
burn 
burn
You selfish old man
