When the news came
I blitzed it fast
drowned my thoughts in Gentleman Jack
and hammered the survivors who tried to fight back
hand in hand with Jack Denial's
we killed the memory
before it could draw its first breath
now it's funny
(as in unusual)
because what I ought to know
I merely suspect
like I woke up too fast from a nightmare
and some of it still lingers
I'm looking for that necessary clarity
before screaming
but it's gone
I avoided that sensation
that firm kick to the back of the knees
has been scratched out of my memory
but I still have the grazes
and now I'm here collecting
the shards of last night
like a drunk dreamer
working out which pieces are real and remain
I find the emptiness first
echoing too loudly to ignore
the regret is still there
for not showing you more
when I had the chance
when I find the jealousy I apologise
for mistaking it for fiction for so long
the rage is still there
oh yes, the rage is definitely still there
and, although I've yet to find it
I know the truth is still there, somewhere
because for all the things drink can erase
I'm sorry to say that truth is not one of them
