Crumble

So let's write ourselves a silly lillo quee

cheer ourselves up and forget all our troubles before we go off

to our shelters of grand construction.

For feelings without thought are too soon in the making

to pass onto the battlefield.

I ache, but what good is my ache-knowledgement of this?

Can analysis be worthwhile?

I love you I do. I love you... I do.

My fractured shins and ankles, toes and knees are broken.

So t(here) I am

unable to move.

 

Here in my lair of mind

I am set apart, but

only for the moments that I stew

in the smoke of my thoughts.

Fresh air that comes with each passing day

enriches my soul and gives me patience, perseverance, and the forgiveness

I do so require.

I bet I was thinking about Crime and Punishment when I wrote this.
