Decapitation
Fornication
Prolific death
Eradication
Rotten soul
Decaying mind
None can save me
None will try

pale effigy
stalking rusted bars
in the emerald haze
of solitude, emblazoned,
Oh, such stark futility;
refulgent, and coveted
a mild severity of trauma
a cherry charred,
hollowed out and raw,
undetermined conviction
sulking on wilted arms;
engulf a shadow,
swallow it,
you can’t even endure yourself
drowning in instants,
pointless interactions

i really don't think my parents
ever
dreamed
their kid was going to grow up
to be
a depressed
sarcastic
*******
that's addicted to the internet
and has more
virtual
friends
than
real
ones

Good-by, proud world, I'm going home,
Thou'rt not my friend, and I'm not thine;
Long through thy weary crowds I roam;
A river-ark on the ocean brine,
Long I've been tossed like the driven foam,
But now, proud world, I'm going home.
Good-by to Flattery's fawning face,
To Grandeur, with his wise grimace,
To upstart Wealth's averted eye,
To supple Office low and high,
To crowded halls, to court, and street,
To frozen hearts, and hasting feet,
To those who go, and those who come,
Good-by, proud world, I'm going home.
I'm going to my own hearth-stone
Bosomed in yon green hills, alone,
A secret nook in a pleasant land,
Whose groves the frolic fairies planned;
Where arches green the livelong day
Echo the blackbird's roundelay,
And ****** feet have never trod
A spot that is sacred to thought and God.
Oh, when I am safe in my sylvan home,
I tread on the pride of Greece and Rome;
And when I am stretched beneath the pines
Where the evening star so holy shines,
I laugh at the lore and the pride of man,
At the sophist schools, and the learned clan;
For what are they all in their high conceit,
When man in the bush with God may meet.

when you live
somewhere dead
you slowly die with it
and when you leave
all your friends
they give you such ****
"why ya movin', anyway?"
"you don't got the ***** or the money."
"you'll never make it."
so you turn
to your family
your blood and your love
and they're the worst of all
it scares those that
love you
to see you leave on your own
and make something of yourself
that doesn't involve them
"you got no dedication. you got no ambition."
"you're being stupid. don't sell your stuff. you ain't goin' anywhere."
"no you can't have any money."
so you grit your teeth
and make it a promise
to show them all up
prove them wrong
right before
their
eyes
with no support
you look to everything
anything
for a crutch
but
you fall
again
and
again
so
you get right the ****
back up
and you learn to
walk
without a crutch
and suddenly
your family
your friends
they see you pressing on
and when they see your vision
you creating your own path
writing your destiny
leading
they
all
follow
and 3,000 miles will never be far enough.

have you ever
sat
to think about your life
and just
how
inconsequential whatever you're doing is
just try
for
a second
fretting over finances
or
straightening your house
or
maybe trying to write
something
anything
worth reading
it's a peculiar kind of feeling
when
one particular Thursday night
you come to fully embrace
the idea
of being cosmically irrelevant
a small kind of feeling
akin to
maybe
standing under a large skyscraper
though
perhaps
the scale of that
doesn't quite do it justice
so you stop
and
think
and whatever you happened to be doing
seems silly
but
when you
think
a bit longer
you come to realize
you are cosmically irrelevant
so you fall asleep
on the toilet
