4.11.2023 - The Coffee Made Me Do It. - Jeffery Page

Hello my fellow friends or fellow fiends, I’m currently sitting at this computer and working on some great projects that includes writing at the moment. Not to mention tons of art as always. I have no complaints other than not wanting to sleep as my mind is firing across the board in creativity at the moment. I have been tattooing quite a bit as of lately to. Some very cool projects definitely in the works. As for other art I am slowly adding more to the store as well other merchandise. Regardless of how you live to day I hope it’s by your design. Sincerely cheers. Your friend Me aka Jeffery Page

Cat Face Killer - Prepare to be educated.

Black Drip by H.C. Nightshade

Dark and bitter, black as sin

A taste that lingers, on my tongue it pins

Hot like fire, digs deep within

A daily dose of caffeine, to numb the pain within

Black drip, bitter taste

Painful memories, we can't erase

A shot of espresso, to the heart we chase

Trying to find a way, to escape this place

Depression lingers, like the aftertaste

Invisible chains, that we can't seem to break

A shot of caffeine, we hope will replace

The emptiness we feel, as we try to escape

Black drip, bitter taste

Painful memories, we can't erase

A shot of espresso, to the heart we chase

Trying to find a way, to escape this place

We pour another cup and try our best

To fight the pain and win this lifelong quest

To find a way to live a life that's blessed

And leave behind the past that we detest

Black drip, bitter taste

Painful memories, we can't erase

A shot of espresso, to the heart we chase

Trying to find a way, to escape this place

Dark and bitter, black as sin

We take another sip, and try to begin

To face our demons, and let go of the pain within 

And embrace the life, that we can win.

When the saints go marching in… Ink and Coffee on paper by Jeffery Page

 

Grounds of Relief

The weight of life can wear us down

Especially when we're stuck on the ground

It's easy to feel like there's no way out

But there's hope, that's what we're about

The grounds of relief are calling out

From the strength of those who find a way out

Do not fear, just listen to the sound

The help you need is all around

Addiction and depression, they have us bound

But there's no shame in needing to be found

So reach out for help, don't be scared 

The people who care are everywhere

The grounds of relief are calling out

From the strength of those who find a way out

Do not fear, just listen to the sound

The help you need is all around

It's hard to see a brighter day 

When you're lost in the darkness of yesterday

But hold on to hope, it will light the way

To a life where you're not just stuck in the fray

The grounds of relief are calling out

From the strength of those who find a way out

Do not fear, just listen to the sound

The help you need is all around

So take that step, and reach out your hand

To those who will help you find a better land

The grounds of relief are here to stay 

Just have hope and seize the day.

The Grind

Another day, another grind

The weight of life, it's hard to unwind

Every day just feels the same

The struggle constant, there's no escape in sight

The grind, it's wearing down

My mental health, it's on shaky ground

Feels like I'm barely hanging on

The grind, it never stops, it's never gone

Endless work from dusk till dawn

Constant stress, it feels so drawn

The pressure builds, can't take the heat

Feel like giving up, can't really compete

The grind, it's wearing down

My mental health, it's on shaky ground

Feels like I'm barely hanging on

The grind, it never stops, it's never gone

The pain I feel, it's too much to bear

I just wish life could be fair

But I still keep going and doing my thing

Hoping for a better tomorrow, a brand new spring

The grind, it's wearing down

My mental health, it's on shaky ground

Feels like I'm barely hanging on

The grind, it never stops, it's never gone

The grind, it's a part of life

But it doesn't mean we can't strive

For happiness, joy, and peace of mind

And maybe one day, we'll leave the grind behind.

Highs and Lows

High and low, it's all I know

A buzz and a jitter, my mind's aglow

A spliff and a hot cup of joe

Makes me feel alive, but then also so damn low

Under the influence of weed and coffee

A strange sensation, sometimes heady, sometimes just a little off me

High and low, it's a strange place to be

Where reality and fantasy become entwined for me

Sometimes my mind goes a million miles an hour

And sometimes I feel like I'm just stuck in the same old tower

But under the influence of green and caffeine

A new world opens up, where highs and lows intervene

Under the influence of weed and coffee

A strange sensation, sometimes heady, sometimes just a little off me

High and low, it's a strange place to be

Where reality and fantasy become entwined for me

But when the buzz wears off and the caffeine fades

I'm left with my thoughts and my mind's escapades

Sometimes it's hard to know what's real

But that's part of the charm of the way I feel

Under the influence of weed and coffee

A strange sensation, sometimes heady, sometimes just a little off me

High and low, it's a strange place to be

Where reality and fantasy become entwined for me

High and low, it's all I know

A buzz and a jitter, my mind's aglow

A spliff and a hot cup of joe

Makes me feel alive, but then also so damn low

The above poems were conceived over coffee and weed about the combos of the two and depression.

“All days are the same. It’s only up to us wether or not we make them different.”
