Koalabama and the Cosmos
:wow:Its been a while since I been in one of these parts. With the constant shyt my family been going through along with ya marsupial, I did some writing and currently creating a book. Here is a poem to keep yall heads high including myself...it's going to get better:


The Voice for the Tired

Let my tone turn your noon into a permanent high

Understand my language for it is dire in such a time

Realize that this is your stance to the final dance

as you groove to the measures of perfection

while the world is so imperfect

don’t forsake this message as a typical lecture

but the pressure to strive for more

than what you are told and scolded for

the reality of having to get a 9 to 5

when you want to create your own divided time structure

they begged for your head and you gave them a finger

you are doing good on this path

now keep going forward my friend

forward from the ways of their woes

from the ills of their misfortune

a failed path that they want you to go along

so what you have nothing to your name

so does 80 percent of the world

lacking fortune, fame, existence, and a vain aura

you ought to realize that this is not your fate

but faith towards the path

is not a wrath of disbelief

but a four leaf clover that is yours to keep

a dirty penny with Lincoln smiling in decay

the way of a warrior without a broken tribe

holding them back from the promise land

let this be a subtle glimpse of your fame

future and precautions that those in your background

will fade like the quick edit of a Photoshop project

the prospect within you will become true

if you allow the voice of your own future

dictate the one that’s stuck in the past







this pain will never last




trust me….

Been on the fence of checking myself in to an institution. I feel it is time...

That was quite the hole to climb from, but we back

Ups and downs
Fighting alcoholism right now
I keep falling off the bandwagon

That's quite the fight but you are strong enough and smart enough to replace your alcoholism with something healthy.

I work, do my homework, go to the gym, but there's always the extra hour of not doing shyt so I say to myself why not go to the bar and drink one beer.
One beer turns into 6 beers :unsure:

I'd limit your operating hours but frustration may push you back to the drink anyways. Positive reinforcement for not drinking should be invoked.

Get a physical calendar and a notepad to record your streaks and feelings. Join a support group. People hold themselves to task when others are involved and watching.
