Poems
Jan 2016
Untitled
It is a solid ache
Harder then
The chest tightening
Cardiac devastation
Hands shake
While I wait
For the world
To catch up to
My kind of love
Tears fall
Unless I distract myself
The cemetery
Holds more like minds
Than I ever find
In these times
I am alone in a sea
Of self-satisfied idiots
Who think the idiot is me
Muscles melt
Legs bend
Minds tend
Towards fantasies
Chants and prayers
Inaction in subservience
While they let the madness go on
But I am wrong
A child starves
They pray
A war goes on
They pray
Rug burns
And sore *****
Bent over
Waiting for an answer
That never comes
But I am the *******
The rose melts
Painted crimson
In fairytales
Of wonderland
The sun departs
Vacating its hydrogen heart
Leaving me with
Only its darker parts
Cascades of liquid
The coagulating kind
Float inside
My troubled mind
Thus, I wonder
While my fingers tap
Beat for heart
Equal to the first
As it will be the last
Will I ever live to see
Such madness pass
