Painkillers for Fun (Free verse) by Sunny

On the balcony with a bitter tongue and remaining sun, I am rationalizing before my buzz sets in. I stare at the poppies for awhile. * * * * * * * * My thoughts blinked like the yellow lights at six; there were the heavy bills blazing white on a desk, and painful drums mauled my temples. Now, with a white capsule influence, those underfed insecurities suppress, those dogs that once harassed the alleys. Lethargic eyes roll next to loitering clouds. The opulence of these disengaged thoughts; I love everything and marvel at the trees. The clouds seem sick, horizontal, skinny. They do their nightly weakening. The suns light slowly smothers at around eight. And day's white light spills down; my white pupils want their dark veils. White high tapers slowly from the white sheets that silence me.

Ranger,
Honored at the score...once again, despite all the sloppy imperfections of original versions. Thanks for choosing to comment on a few of my poems out of the many out there that are actually good, some of the time-I never said that :0
In reference back to your persistantly knowledgable comments:
-I'll move blinked (which is definitely a verb in this line's context), to the line above, for a 'smoother ride'-you're right Ranger
-The whole dog usage...honestly...what? Please explain what you are referring to; I'm totally lost on that one
-I did get carried away like a mad woman on my white kick, thanks for pointing that out...I mean, I would hope people would tell me if I my bikini top slid off in the water & I had no clue...ya know?? Thanks for everything :)

~Sunny
