They call me beautiful,
For even my scars are beaded with jewels of pain!
They call me charming,
For even my tears shed down like pearls, as in the monsoon rain!
And then they call it a day,
For even my words, rant like the late winter's hail!

Let's redefine the word "beautiful"

all paths lead to nowhere,
nowhere to hide,
nothing but the sprawling,
unnerving reality of time

it slips, silently, through the fingers
all moments, having passed,
unify and become one:
"the past"

Arresting All Development

if a Muse is

true, it peers at your

art.

at it, from it.

arresting all development,

every vocable angle.

not merely representative

of life, but her in full.

Lonely Love

I’m lonely but I make myself that way
I want to be loved, but I drive them all away

Bleeding

I did nothing wrong.
Why do I have the punishment?
Separated, outcast, cast aside.
Too inconvenient for acknowledgment.

Parties continue, pictures are taken.
I have been erased.
Wounded and broken, but instead of comfort:
"Why are you bleeding all over the place?"

Why must the victim pay for the crime?
