Et cetera
you spin with the rings of Saturn
and twirl around the stars when they combust
you catch wisps of their memories
as they die having witnessed centuries
and use them greedily as you
scribble your poems, unconscious of yourself.

you are an artist.
you like to paint
                             smiles on your face to conceal the pain
you like to draw
                              laughs out of the hollow pit of your chest
you like to colour
                              your wrists red and taste the life flowing out of you
                              as if it would quench the thirst created
                              by the loss of someone that you knew
you are an artist
                             you love to create
                                                             you
                                                                     love
                                                                              to
                                                                                   erase.

you wake up
                        (6:45)
                                   you close your eyes
                                                                        (7:00)
                                                                                    you pass
                                                                                    away
                                                                                    the urge to
                                                                                                           WAKE
                                                                                                            UP
                                                
bliss.

your mouth is wide open
teeth pointed
like a vampire
you look hungry
like you haven’t fed in a while
you crave him
but
he can't satisfy you
don't you see
all this is in vain
you are his conquest
he is your vervain

you must forgive
yourself first

“Here’s my card”
In it you will find:
My name,
Contacts
And organisation,
     In said order.

In it you will not find:
the ****** of my hips
the lies on my lips
the scars on my nips
the end at my tips

In said order.

It is not you that I miss,

             But the person
             That
                          
Was.

             The person
             That

                                    could
                                               be.

That is who I miss.

THAT person.

Me.

With yesterday
slung over one shoulder

And tomorrow
slung over the other

Today saw
the comfort of emotion

Today showed me
that I am only human

The cure to healing is Realing…
The cure to seeking (sicking) is reading

The cure to P.A.I.N. is the above
And so the cure to H.A.T.E. is L.O.V.E.
