Pissing. by Ryan Quinn Flanagan



a
hot
yellow
happy
face

into
the
snow
bank
outside

after
midnight

you
must
know
that
the
circle
part

is
the
hardest

and
there
is
always

a
little
spillage

and
that

there
are
no
Rembrandts

at
twenty
below

plus

wind
chill.

   I Eat Orphans. by Ron Murphy

                 
I find them sad so I always add a dash of barbeque sauce and a garnish of wild onions with a side of fries.

Nobody reports them missing but my neighbors are certainly curious as to why they never see them leave .

But they know better to ask.
But they don't complain cause you won't find any vagrants or stray animals on my block.


Well maybe a cat seems I'm allergic to pussy.

That's why you never see any around.

They banned me from sea world for trying  to steal Shamu.

I have a hell of appetite for only one man.

My ex never seemed to mind .

She has been missing for two years nobody's ever seems to wonder  where she went.

She was a real bitch .

She gave me a horrible case of heartburn .

And when I have a bad case of heartburn I reach for the only thing that always gets the job done .

Billy Joel's Burn Be Away .

Yes he didn't start the fire but he damn sure will end it .

Yes the piano man now not only tickles the ivories but now stops what burns down deep in your tummy.

Yes just look for bottle with Billy Joel's face on it .

Burn Be Away .

You're Welcome.

Billy Joel is not a licensed doctor and side effects may include .
Explosive diarrhea, Internal human combustion,  Sweating bullets , And open mic poetry readings.

Children under the age of twelve should not read this post if not in the presence of a adcult or  Scott Simmons .

Eating another human is not funny and will probably have some bad side effects but if you do eat  another person you should probably avoid clowns cause I have heard they taste funny.

UTB does not condone or support drug use .

If you are depressed and need a friend.

Please call a random stranger at..

832 802 9430

I am not on drugs while writing this.
For I am high on Jesus .

You have a great day you have a great day for it .








                     Ron Murphy

Is the golden voice of UTB and currently resides in parts unknown with his asshole dog and imaginary friend .

Capt Slappy .

Ron is also a published author and his recent book Memoirs  Of A Madman is currently a bestseller in Canada wear he is worshipped as a God.

Ron has been linked to many starlets like .
Betty White , Miss Piggy,  Jennifer Lawrence, Jason Voorhees and Brad Pitt.

When not doing voice over work and being involved with petty crimes Ron enjoys the life of a true thespian .

He has a large collection of vintage bug lights and electric chairs .
He is also the lead researcher for the Bigfoot and female orgasm and other mythical things institute.

He is a painter and rock climber and part time firefighter .

Ron Murphy will be running as a independent candidate for President of the United States of America .


His motto is .

He wont change shit but least he won't blow the world up.

And will drop the drinking age to seven and make all drugs legal .

Halleluja Of Soaked Grass. by Mendes Biondo




dance
you are the music
dance
grass is waiting for your
bare feet

the moon’s high
and you’re white
you’re the milk of life
there’s honey in your wombs
the skin of your hips is birch bark

dance and feel the planets
rolling around you

keep the fire burning
woman you’re joy
keep flowing rivers
woman your blues is
the music of the world

in your eyes
deep black holes
light is just a morsel
of this time sliding
on your skin made of dunes

woman you’re the scream
the sun is behind the clouds
woman you’re rain on earth
all is sounding
of your bluesy vibes

The Best A Man Can Get. by Robert Ragan



Here at Gillette, we'd like to apologize for offending you.

No, we'd rather tell you to shut the fuck up!

If you're a man and offended by a commercial then you should castrate yourself with one of our razors

The creative team behind our ad campaign, well none of them have any type of writing degree. No, they're just pissed off failed poets. Writers we found on the streets and pay with dope.

Plus we're owned by Procter & Gamble, so you can't fuck with us.

‘Now the world premiere of a brand new Gillette commercial.’

In the early morning, a paperboy on a bicycle throws a newspaper on someone's freshly cut lawn behind a white picket fence.

Inside the house, a family sits at the table.
The father in a suit and tie, cleanly shaven.
His bright, cheerful, blond wife pours him a glass of milk.

Their son long haired and pale-faced is slumped down in his chair. He's wearing a dog collar and a Marilyn Manson t-shirt.

In the next scene, the father is shirtless and shaving in front of the bathroom mirror. To his reflection, he says, "My whole family uses Gillette. My old lady shaves her legs with the same ones I use." Flashing to her in one of his old t-shirts with her legs nicked all to hell.

Next, they're inside an emergency room with a doctor sewing up a long gash in their son's arm. The goth kid cries like a bitch. His father, smiling at the camera says, “Even my son, Ralph, uses Gillette and he doesn't even shave yet."

In the final scene, the father is drunk outside a bar. Some biker pushes him down. Before getting back up he looks at the camera and says, “I never leave home without a Gillette," then pulls out a razor blade hidden in his mouth.

The commercial ends with the father attacking the biker with the razor blade pinched between his thumb and fingers.

Now, before you bitches go into an outrage, just remember that we here at Gillette don't give a fuck what you think!

Anyone offended, well suck a fat one!

Instead of a shout out, I'd like to send a ‘fuck you’ to all the men out there growing beards. Old mountain man looking motherfuckers, they should give y’all rabies shots.

Oh, and women with hairy legs and pussies, fuck y'all too!

Last but not least. Bic, we all hate you and hope every one of you dies. May your entire staff go postal.

Y’all got us with those lighters, but we'll always be the upper echelon of the razor game bitches.





Robert Ragan from Lillington NC lives his life for art and writing. He has stories and poetry online at Vext Magazine, Outlaw Poetry, The Dope Fiend Daily, The Rye Whiskey Review, Drinkers Only, Under The Bleachers, Cajun Mutt Press, and Punk Noir Magazine. Alien Budha Press has published his short story collection “Mannequin Legs and Other Tales”

A Cold One. by Gwil James Thomas



Could you bring me a cold one 
if you’re going past the fridge? 

Because, the needle just fell and 
Son House has sounded, 
the painkillers have run out 
and my arm’s still fucked from 
that night with my best friend 
and the motorbike.

Since, after all these years of not 
learning from my mistakes, 
I think that I might as well 
just celebrate them now
and I know that I’m no role model, 
but also that we’re all  
name calling in the madhouse 
when you truly think about it. 

As, we’re only here for a moment 
and sometimes just stopping 
to take in the beauty amongst 
all the moving masses can 
get a little too much. 

But above all else - 
could you bring me a cold one, 
because 

this can’s almost empty!




“Gwil James Thomas is a poet, novelist and inept musician originally from Bristol, England. His work can be found largely in print and occasionally online in places such as 3AM Magazine, Punk Lit Press, The Beautiful Space and The Dope Fiend Daily. His most recent poetry chapbook is titled Romance, Renegades & Riots (Analog Submission Press) a split with the poet John D Robinson. He lives in Northern Spain.”

Thunderbolt. by Doc Sigerson



The white flash blitzes the intersection
to catch the scofflaw in the very act.
A fine is levied and a notice sent
to the vehicle owner of record.
One day my wife unsealed an envelope
and she withdrew a grainy photograph.
Frozen in a moment of distraction
behind the wheel I sit with jaunty grin.
In my eye gleams a spark and beside me 
my girlfriend with her unseen hand at work.

Drive too cautiously and you cannot help 

but hit every red light on your route.





Doc Sigerson lives in the Seattle area. He is a military veteran, works in retail, and leads a sedate life. He has had the wonderful fortune of having his published work disappear when online sites lose their domain rights and the terrific good luck to have his printed work fade to obscurity when those publishers would rather buy cannabis than cough up contributor copies.

Winter Colds by Ian Copestick


Aren't winter Colds a pain in
The arse ? I keep waking myself  through the night, because I have to cough. A horrible, chesty, sputum spouting cough. My nose is blocked, my
Throat feels like I've been
Gargling with razor blades, and
To quote from one of my
Favourite films " My head feels
Like it's been shat in by a pig"
Taking paracetamol is like trying to
Solve world hunger with a
Big Mac.
In short, I feel fucking awful, and
There's HOW many months of
Winter left ?








Ian Lewis Copestick is a 46 year old writer ( I prefer that term to poet ) from Stoke on Trent, England. I spend most of my life sitting,  thinking then sometimes writing. I have been published in Anti Heroin Chic, the Dope Fiend Daily, Outlaw Poetry, Synchronized Chaos, the Rye Whiskey Review, Medusa's Kitchen and Horror, Sleaze, Trash.

Hand Job Hannah & The Summer of ‘92 by Brian Fugett


Hannah had an orange-belt
in Tae Kwon Do
back when
Ninjas were all the rage
& The Karate Kid
was a sex symbol.
But now that
Ralph Macchio
is passé
& the ninja-nation
has spiraled
into a recession,
she functions
as a disposable girlfriend
in the parking lot
of the Food-&-Fuel truck stop.


“A buck-fifty for a hand job,” she whispers,
demonstrating the strength
of her kung-fu grip
on the necks’
of bleary-eyed truckers
as they climb
out of their rigs
in search of
coffee & cigarettes.








Brian Fugett is a member of the slacker, fast food generation that has been branded with an “X”. He sits in his pad all day consuming more oxygen than he’s worth. He’s been doing it for 47years now & has become quite efficient at it. Some day he hopes to be president of the “International Society of Incontinent Gum Swallowers”, a support group for people who compulsively swallow gum & piss themselves. Until that day arrives, he occupies his time with writing, photography, boozing, tail-chasing and occasional pugilism.

BECAUSE. by Jay Passer



because I'm catching up on the black bear's 
hibernation

because the curtain leaking in paltry morning
light

because the 6 AM meat truck vibrates with refrigerated
butchery

because I crack my knuckles and toes reading Bulgakov in
bed

because my eyelids are closed to the policies of the alien
overlords

because I stretch out
while the cosmos
cry out in celebratory
fervor

because some half-wit was elected king of the
clowns

because I've got you next to me whispering while immersed in

dream




Jay Passer's work has appeared in print and online since 1988. He is the author of several chapbooks and has appeared in a bunch of anthologies. His latest collection, they lied to me when they said everything would be alright, from Pski's Porch, is available at Amazon. Passer lives and works in San Francisco, the city of his birth.

A Little Horse by James Babbs


I asked her
why couldn’t the pony talk
and she told me
I was drunk
I said
that might be true
but it still doesn’t
answer the question
she sighed
it was the same sigh I’d heard
so many times before
the one she used
when she was really annoyed
hey I said
I’m just having a good time
she said oh
I know
I took another drink from my beer
what’s wrong with that
I asked
not a thing she said
but she didn’t look at me
I laughed
and looked down
at the bottle in my hand
I took another drink
because I said
he was a little horse
she said what
and I laughed again
she let another sigh slip
from her beautiful lips
that’s why the pony couldn’t talk
I said
and I laughed again
she grabbed some of the empties
scattered on the floor
I heard them hitting together
when she walked out of the room








James Babbs likes the night life but he doesn’t like to boogie.  James has written hundreds of poems and a few short stories over the years and has even had a few of them published.  If you happen to visit the internet you may find something he has written.
