poetry is dead / / let us revive it
When life departs Where does one even begin to start; the healing. Those left behind masked and basked in burning feeling. A hanged man A hanged man How does one justify a hanged man. A man who seemingly had everything, but became a brand. A bathrobe belt around his neck tied to a doorknob in a french hotel, **** A hanged man A hanged man A man who had everything, Yet a heart full of pain, searing. We may only see the outside. The inside is hidden from us, tearing. The cries for help ignored, no hearing. The inevitable demise pushed out of our minds, fearing. A hanged man A hanged man A hanged brand How do we accept a hanged man, a man who had everything.

Anthony. Tony. B.
I break more guitar strings than hearts, I am bad at music I am bad at love. I hit the chords too hard. I burst more drum heads than hearts, I am bad at rythm I am bad at love. I strike the snare too hard.

Living is as important as dying. Do not let words leave you, for once They do they transform to smoke. Living is just as important as dying. Do not let the words build up inside you, For, once they do, they turn to a ball of   unpolished stone. Living is as important as dying. Do not leave this earth without, before Crying out the words which, if not, will Turn to sour stone. Because, Living is as important as dying. Then Narcissus spoke: We are the moon We are the sun We are the stars    Twinkling above.

Welcome. To the Age of major gains, But no progress. Abundant selfies, But harshly any selflessness. Delectable boomerangs of delicious dinners, While many suffer starving in foreign winters. Will Likes Hearts Views And Shares Become the end-all-be-all of the winners? Chicken Dinner Chicken Dinner Chicken Dinner C H    I          R     C       E      K     N       E    N        N  I         D

I can't control my vices, so just give me medication
I desire to play the piano fingertips like cigarettes I desire to pick at the guitar fingertips like cigarettes I want to whistle mellifluous melodies to my comrades lips like cigarettes I wish to massage your head broken fingernails filed cigarettes I search for my voice to shout but my lungs are (((filled))) I want to write a SuRreal poem But, my fingertips are as cigarettes

Things you need are that hard To find. There, over there, outside your window, not the breeze. It is a disease, who waits outside that window. Inside growing groaning please please come and  play innocently come please play. Forget about everyone and anyone you love. Lubricious ànd concupiscient There are things that are not that easy To find. Say; Love, Friendship, Absence of pain, A feeling of hope-unfueled by any dope. A monster which waits outside your window while you groan and moan for these things, inside blow your window. Not that easy to find. Lubricious ànd concupiscient There are things that are easy To find. A blade of grass, a crumbling building, war, hate, and mallace. Yet look harder and may also, easily, Find beauty.

Jean Baptiste Prayer
Life becomes much simpler When one gives up hopes, Dreams, Ambitions. "Why write?" You may then ask. Because, it is the only thing to Reveal the face of Truth, in a World full of masks. Imitation fireplace, the Great gates of Nowhere creak open... For me, the doors of perception, lead me nowhere You pompous ***** I know what I know. I know what my friends know. Because there's no secrets. Because there are no secrets. Is what is energy now, in me, Later burn in some other new Blood? Will what is buried now, Sprout after the thaw? Euphoria Again Two Rights A miracle of lights, I have no reason to not indulge In delight, Cept depression eats away, bit/bit By bit. To others, seemingly trite. To me, a life or death fight.

Thursday Nights Twice a Month
This paint brush has become an extension of my hand. It has sunk it's color pumping living veins into me. Now, my hand aches dripping crimson, everytime I put it down. This pen has become an extension of my hand. A sixth finger extends dripping ebony ever scratching ivory surface, vexing to keep the hourglass full, of sand. I am no longer My body. I am my tools of creation.
