Spoken Word: piece about whiskey, women, and Downtown St. Pete Fl
I love the taste of whiskey.

I love it straight up no chaser no bullshit.
Kinda how i like my women. Brown sexy, and intoxicating.
The first sip always has a bite to it,
but she likes it when I do that.
After that first swig I'm thowin em' back.

Just me and my buddies Jim and Jack
sittin back relaxing people watching,
Taking a moment to glance at a beautiful woman.

Then Spend some time.
laughing at the douche bags as they jockey for position.

Most of my friends reside in low places so its here i come to meet them.
The musics loud and mostly bad but that's OK we mostly just complain.
Take advantage of the two for ones and the whiskey just keeps coming like porn-stars on command!

After six or seven I'm starting to feel like the man. The DJ plays some Jay-Z Song
and I start doing the lazy white boy shoulder lean,

You know what I mean.
That smooth ass shit that will make your girl friend leave for the bathroom and not return until the songs end.

You know "That Guy" yeah well sometimes I might be him.

So don't hate! If you find me at Durty Nelly's stumblin', mumblin', ordering another one I Just needed to unwind, and spend some time with some old friends of mine.

and If its last call I want a double tall.
No time to spare. The lights are on.
The music is off,
and everyone at the bar has gone home.

Well Then I guess Ill drink alone!

I finish my last sips anticipating the headache from sink or swims sad side effects.
Hadn't yet stopped to ponder the incredibly perilous journey I'm about to embark on.
Like some kind of tree-hugging Hells angel
I mount my trusty 50cc steed and
proceed to scoot my drunk ass down the streets of St. Pete.

Goddamn
I love whiskey!
