if it sputters, spits
seems to slip
might as well
get used to it
over easy
easy as
i've learned from
experience

hard to find
change your mind
in and out
most of the time
it's a shame
if not a crime
as it all
comes to light

moving fast
built to last
please feel free
to be my guest
innies, outies
this and that
just the facts ma'am
just the facts
It's a bad idea for me to love you especially when your heart is missing

& when I peep the ocean, it's not even worth fishing

I'll love you forever but to me, forever isn't that long

I don't ever wanna be right if loving you is wrong

I feel it when you smile but it's a pain to see you cry

& as much as I desire that role, I know I'll never be that guy
This scar upon my hand
A, one time, hopeful plan

A promise left unkept
Now poison's my affect
Small, wet, and
Buried
Trying hard to remember
I am a seed
Buried is where I need
To be

Under the moon's soft, silvery glow,
A white spider weaves its porcelain thread,
Amidst lavender blooms that gently sway,
In the night's tender breath, delicately spread.

Elegant limbs trace a whispered dance,
Across petals that dream of the Lethe's serene flow,
A river of forgetting, where old sorrows fade,
Yet here, in this garden, memories gently grow.

Each movement is a testament to nature's grace,
In the lavender's embrace, a tranquil romance,
Where time pauses, and the heart finds rest,
As the white spider spins its eternal trance.

so stubborn,
and generous,
it falls
            drop by drop,
it falls
          in the battle like kings,
bringing (us) tears for a feast

I am not sure why I bother
To connect to others

~It only leaves me feeling shame-
-A mess, a wreck, a ball of flame~

It all's a bit too much
To stumble about without crutch
Whiteish-grey, is the protective coating
That maintains 'neath all this water, rolling

Rooftops that want not of Nature's embrace
Beads - to rivers - to parched waterways

Softly some boast, "nature beat, by us Beasts!"
Unbeknown to those; Nature's got deep sleeves
Take
The winter -
Turn it
Into summer

Take
The moon -
Turn it
Into the sun

Take
The chicken fat
Out of
The soup and

Ask me,
Sarc-less,
"What's left
To be done?"
