A painting
that evokes
either
claustrophobia
or comfort.
occasionally both

I laugh
because i'm not
quite tall enough
to loom menacingly
over all my problems.

Chilly day
Still I sweat
Under that
Heat lamp gaze
I never tan
Just burn
But still so cold.

all things arguably
for one reason or another
such a pain
deciding who to trust
look em in the eye
they say the windows
to the soul
dam foggy windows

maybe a tad paranoid

The thing is
I need to do something
but I need something

Something something
Very very bleak
Ill tides are always
Waiting at the beaches
Of our days
Or so it seems
Through my pessimistic haze
Some find succor in the past
All I can do is laugh
There must be a silver lining
Somewhere around here
Isn't there always.
Grey poetry at least.

The people died
I don't know why
I killed them for money
I find as I get older
The excuses get weaker
But coins still spend the same.
