Most inspirational!

Try this:

I’m hammered because I’m drunk.

My kidneys are floating. My Mom is passed out accross from me. Beer cans
pile around us. They my only friends.

I’m in the United States. This beer be Canadian. I throws it at the TV.
It’s really broke. I’m hammered because I’m drunk.

Mama’s eyes are red. Like a cherry pie. She for real? Please, Mama!
Go back to sleep. I’m hammered because I’m drunk.

I spit on Mama, she mad I broke the TV. She say it too cold in here.
I’m crying ‘cause I can’t find the thermostat. I’m hammered because I’m drunk.


Oh Mama! Shut the hell up! ‘Fore I smack you wit this bush! Mama don’t shut
up wailing she gon’ get hammered because I’m drunk.

Now it’s my turn. Bafroom spinnin’ like a helicopter. I have no strength ‘cause
I’m heaving up three gallons of malt liquor into the toilet.
I’m hammered because I’m drunk.

I hear some fools in the yard. I try to stop Mama. She yells “get out my yard, fools!”
The FEMA trailer park has come to this. I’m hammered because I’m drunk.


I call out to the fools. “Y’all got y’alls check yet?” Everything goes black.
They jacked me for my FEMA card. I’m jacked because I’m drunk.


I’m hammered because I’m drunk. It usually goes down like this. Where that
Sean Penn fool when you need him? Sucker’s prolly drunk.

Oh, Mama! Dear sweet Mama. I wail into the sky. Where's that promising Bush? Mama didn't have to die.

Not gonna touch that one with the proverbial ten-foot-pole.

We died 'cause we're poor

Lazy, a bad writer, maybe even stupid. But not because you're poor. (I understand that they can vote in blue states, but since when can dead people post? What is FR coming to?)

Hey, Stupid...why is your car still parked in the driveway under water, like 200,000 others in NO, when you had 48 hours to evacuate? Was George Bush supposed to come drive you and your mama 90 miles to Baton Rouge? No, you were stubborn, lazy, and stupid and that's why you are poor and dead.
