i simply wish to express my desire
but my poetry is mere embers to the fire
the same rhyme schemes make me abhor
these whorish words
selling themselves to the desperate writer
in need of short lived satisfaction
so in kafka like fashion
trash distracts.
similar to this poor excuse for an anecdote

i saw you in my mind when i was on the train.
i saw you in front of my eyes when i crashed on my bike

notes build like bricks
to create structures to be filled
with souls who find home there
words mix like swirling colors in paint cans
making drab and old weathered browns
new blush reds
and starry-eyed blues
we live inside art because we need to know
our slight hope of excruciating beauty

This bloodied pen is a facade
All talent drained on the promenade.
Eroded words on crumpled parchment
Leave no solace for the "artist".
A conqueror Worm of Edgar's lore
Has seen the light in mirrored ore.
The illuminated cynicism
Adds more iron to his prison;
The Keeper ever vigilant.
Watching slowly? The Dissent.

Fuck you and fuck you too
An 'Unwanted' ramble dressed as a message for you
Drunken truths spat out in the middle of the night
A knowing clue telling you what I am thinking of you
So fuck you and fuck you

Stirred wind sweep mommas grapevine
Leaves drip from the autumn branches
As the herds move forward
Seeds of vegetables are deeply planted
Among the plantation
Hills rest upon hills
Daydreaming at the heavens
While rested upon grassy hills
Bicycles roll while the dusty breeze goes
Acres of eight mile
So many places to go
Waterfalls deep in the

Eyes lift among each other
Temperature rises as the sun
See beautiful days
Spring has patiently come
Divine seasons escape the before life
We blow as the crystal wind
Scattered shades of darkness
Sin eats its way in
Put oneself back in its cage
She ignored the silent voices
Rainy thoughts remain unvealed
He ignored

What is that noise?
Outside so coy.
Slam! Knock! Knock!
What could this knock on the door possibly be for?
Surely it is no coincidence?
