ms hitt 2h
my ego is full of
empty promises and
broken dreams.

my id is full of
lustful desires and
pictures of you.

my superego is full of
regret of the things i've done and
regret of the things i haven't done

mountain
ms hitt 3h
you ask me to move a mountain
as if I could

you ask me to move a boulder
as if I could

you ask me to move a rock
as if I could

you ask me to move a pebble
as if I could

you ask me to move a grain of sand
as if I could

as if I could
move a grain of sand

then I could
move a pebble

then I could
move a rock

then I could
move a boulder

then I could
move a mountain

and I cant move a mountain

nyx
stars like pimples
on the surface of your skin
bursting forth
galactic supernovas of mass

the sun and the moon
dancing in the center of your robes
your children mingling
the moirai, the apate, the ker

driving forth the universe
the pendulum of the clock
who are you, nyx
and why do you exist

push and pull
ms hitt 3h
why should i learn how to push
if I don't even know how to pull

why should I run
if I cant even stand
on my own two feet

why see
if I cant
feel this

why should I exist
if I cant even think
thoughts for myself

why should i learn how to pull
if I don't even know how to push
One must imagine Sisyphus happy

ms hitt 22h
it was all my fault
you didn't do anything wrong
I take the blame for everything
that went wrong

i'm sorry, i'm sorry,
too little too late there was nothing
nothing left to bury my head in
no shell to hide in

my little green armor
shattered to segments, serving no
purpose but to please. its making me
crazy.

the mistakes i make
are more than the amount
of seeds pomegranate
the count of pills
exceeding eleven
or was it elven

typos seep into pages
like pen ink in paper
a waterfall, a shower
not jentacular in itself
nor is it connect musing

sorry.

one less
ms hitt 23h
when she died
he didn't cry
he didn't mourn
he just said
"one less"

one less what?
one less life to care for
one less mouth to feed
one less thing to do
one less distraction to manage

one less person to love
one less spot in heaven
one less mother
one less spouse
one less tear to shed

this is a memo, memoir
a memory of things right
before the big change
is there anything that needs changing
is there a flaw that you dislike
is there a imperfection
a defect that needs fixing

I need to make myself perfect
so that I can match you
this is a request for comments
is there a shortcoming that needs deleting
is there a fault forgotten
fix me, fix me forge me again
this is the foundation for a new form
go make a new disaster
ms hitt 1d
i exist
i have set myself in the floor
i have etched my existence into the air
i have opened a door, i have walked around
i have affected the people around me and made them smile

they cried
they said no and ignored me
they walked away when i came close
they did not open the door for me or said hello
they trampled over me and my feelings and made me cry
but who cares?

taken for a ride
ms hitt 1d
he was taken for a ride
the track leading up was slow
but it was exciting nonetheless
and when it came all crashing down
the wind in his face; the speed
was intoxicating.

so he was taken for a ride again
the track leading up seemed slower than before
he had already seen these sights, he had already felt the cold air
and when it came all crashing down
the wind in his face; the speed
was intoxicating.

so he was taken for a ride again
the track leading up seemed to be even longer than before
and it felt as if it wasn't as high, and it wasn't as steep as before
and when it came all crashing down
there was no wind in his face
and he moved as slow as a snail

clinging to a wall like a cat to a tree, fear, fearing
bloodied and bruised, broken bones
breakneck, break my fall
fall-ing f a l l fall
please?

too tall a tower, this'll take a while, give me a minute
one slip equals one trip taken too long
to the early grave
I don't want to
leave this

caution causes calluses, cramps collisions, better
switch it up, go faster(don't be a *****)
run, run, running up a wall
like spiderman
himself

what if there's a oops, some confusion, a sudden stop
like a snowball tumbling, tumbli-n-g down
a hill. wait no wall, wall falling
break my fall
fall-i-n-g

help me, im falling is there no one else to hear me scream
scream, scream, scream into the air, scar desensitized
like the wisp waiting for the reset
hear me scream watch me
fall-i-n-g down

no safety net no friend or foe to catch me need be
just eat dirt eat floor, rocky road
he was gone she was gone
all whisked away
by a wall.
fall, fall, falling

into my head

splish, splash, splish
the ideas
get re-i-fi-ed
into my head

my head, my head
fill’d with
your words, you
heavy showers at noon

on a sunday morning
the jentacular
downpours, thinking
with a side of musing
i have a ton of backlogged poems, so I'm posting them all at once

am i i am mechanical man
have i i have mechanical man
what is is what mechanical man
is there there is mechanical man

mechanical man, mechanical man
hear me hear me mechanical man
mechanical melancholy marauders this man
mechanical emotions mock this man

this is is this mechanical man
see it it sees mechanical man
shoutout outshout mechanical man
Inside outside mechanical man

mechanical man, mechanical man
mechanical men, mechanical men
over and over, mechanical men
again and again, mechanical men

am i am i mechanical man
are we we are mechanical men
what is what is mechanical man
is there there is mechanical men

mechanical man, mechanical men
this is, is this mechanical men
we see, we see mechanical men
we are, we are mechanical men

nuts and bolts, mechanical man
am i, am i mechanical man
scarecrow, scarecrow, mechanical man
help me, help me mechanical man

mechanical man, mechanical man
need not heed not mechanical man
scarecrow, scarecrow, mechanical man
nuts and bolts make up this man

gone, gone, gone was the mechanical man
with his mechanical whims and his mechanical hymns
nuts and bolts made up this man, and
run, run, running was the mechanical man
and his mechanical friends followed the man
they asked, mechanical man, what do you see
scarecrows, scarecrows, working fields of green
their metallic hands that reap but never sow

tell me, tell me, mechanical man
are we are weall just cogs in a machine
scarecrows, scarecrows, said the man
a cog can jam, a wheel could break
we are but men, so live, live like a man
robots are but machines, doing things
over and over, over and over,
over and over, over and never again
over and over.
