so, i thought
this is a contrived
effort
as is
your reading
of it

not a thing
of beauty kneeling
before you
seeking
anything
at'll

then what
do i show up here
for
if not
to be beauty
loved

smile
forlornly
at me
and i
will do
the same

To you this missive
speeds with
venom
Dennis Willis Jun 2020
I can write
this poetry
of complaint

as if I had
a can of special
sad paint

I'm slipping
behind this
instance propping
up hope
and it's words
benedictions
bent in the current
are you wondering
could this be
nope
yes it is\

disgruntled
as a human heart
chambered rounds
pumped into
the pain body

i am setup
to fall
upon a sword
that is actually
a dipstick an'
I ahm only
measured and
wiped off

What vies
to be our
blood stream

our signal
out of the
"that direction"

bits of dysfunction
speed to you
unhindered

like sandwhiches
oh i like
them

of meaningless
to celebrate
a dog's greeting

Vies is only because
numbness
arrived in time

I'm writing against
an *******
seriously

Puck her
belief
it's a wipe

What do you think
of the censor
as a whole

I think it stinks
a nasty
crack

oughta be
wiped out
clean

of all opinions
as they are
toxic

There is a
"there is"
to start

and i can't find
beauty
init

Trumpets blare
from Bravo
a cinematic start

unreel this tense
sell you Lloyd
nice

i think I've
gotten it
down

There is
a way
listen
