When i tried writing about hangovers

By Rebel_not_Radical

Hangover overdrive
The steering wheel
Crashing junkies
In corners of my alcohol
And nicotine rusted mind

Flashing razorblade smiles
Beautiful killer vibes
Beating to the flash
Im stuck in crossroads
Of Hotel California imagery

Perfume of the night
the eau naturale scent
Of girls' sweat swinging
with the putrid puke
praying to the porcelain god

And i lie there a
Beaten rabid dog on
Railroad tracks
Flecks of rabies foam
on the corners of my mouth

Im a prisoner to freedom
on a blind vendetta to stardom
writing poems to the sound
gutters cats' songs

I can't remember the lyrics
we sang raving mad last night

Wooohoooo, sorry, I'll try to keep it down--even if you can't hehehe. So glad I'm boring these days! Hangovers, in the corner of my mind, misty...why do wasted people always go to hobo rails?

I like it a lot, but I think it would be better if you did away with a few of the cliches like "praying to the porcelain god" and "razorblade smiles" because I think your mind could come up with something much better, like

"nicotine rusted mind" that's great. And the alliterations that aren't simultaneous really help with the flow..overall I think this is wonderful
