Un-motivation,
I have a way about me.

Are you enjoying me, anonymous reader?
Because my self-indulgence is wearing on I.

Let's **** the flame together.
There's a mess on the table.

If I ignore her, will she eventually leave me be?

Thoughts, thoughts, and scatter-plot dots
I've got intelligence down to a science.

Do I write for you?
Do I write for me?
Do I write for Him?
Do I write for she?

Who's the head?
And who's the heading?
Who's the body?
We're just beginning.

Musical significance on the back-note taste bud of my lower sound registry.
That was a long line.

I like the 4th wall, if only because it breaks for me.

Alligator tears have no place here,
and nor does this lackadaisical approach.

I hope you all ride first class,
and I ride coach.

You're a good girl, and you know it
But what does that make me?

Let's let glue run through my veins
I'll stick with anything you give me.

Short poems always seem to give a sense of importance.

I wish to be drunk
If only to taste the lips
of an empty bottle

[there is no form here]

Laughing distantly
from the other room
Quiet inner-sobbing

[there's no one left]

Not sure if you
believe it, not sure
if I do.

[just move on, it's so much easier]

Slogging through mud
I've clearly lost my shoes
Bare skin settles deep

[what's left in this for you, for me]

Silence is consent
And I am ne'er hell-bent
Fashion-forward
Shoehorned selections
Kindling nethers to get attention
I am the sincerest form of flattery

[breaking tradition now//self-created]

Giving myself too much credit
Failing for son of the year
Searching...
Searching...
Searching...

What I say and what I do
ne'er be they the same.

Talking like a pirate
Arrr, matey, play the game.

Dates of birth
and sketching turf

We're all sinners
consistent

Can I Write something that's life giving,
Now that I'm being persistent?

Lets wrote poor grammar
Syntax and spalling awry

I can't write worth anything,
And only sometimes, can tie a tie.
22nd day of birth was yesterday. Felt an overwhelming desire to write today. I don't know how long that will be the case, though. I miss this.

You are gonna come
And he's so spunky
They get so big and black
Only during Thursdays
I think he has time
He goes in and out
Be gentler with the littler ones
[something in another language]
He goes "I love you, sugar"
That's so sweet
He goes in and out a lot
Oh yeah?
I heard that when I was a kid.
Wait till they hit ten.
I guess it depends
[indistinct chatter]
She was a little ****
[Clatter of keyboard keys]
"Chai?"
I got super excited.
Easily 20+ times.
Brothers ****.

A response to a prompt in "I Need Your Assistance".

Completely unfettered
Completely uncensored
Dear Lord, forgive me, for I know not what I do.
Guttural *******
To the nth
Degree
Take my innards
Out, inside of me
Busted chariots of fruit and linens
I know something
Something you didn’t
I busted a nut
Over the moon
I took a girl out
Taught her to swoon
I am the English
I am the martyr
I took two to three hours
“*******” your daughter
I am the *****
And I am the ****
I spent all night
Learning to twerk

Busting my guts over injurious
Thought processes
I did this, to the best of my lessons.

I look at the page
with no desire to write anything
I haven't written anything in over a week or so.
