Yea, Yea by Dan Provost

Never was I diagnosed with anything, just
another dreary malcontent who drank away his
rent money.
 
I catapulted misery into a shot glass.
 
Raised my eyebrows for more whiskey.
 
My northern Rhode Island accent never noticed…
 
I barely had to say a word as the bluesy Allman Brothers
score played in front, behind and on both sides of
gutter neutrality.
