Poems
Jul 2017
Scenes from the garbage pile
Insect rivalries disrupt microscopic tragedies
Their tiny objections echo through the infinite
Muted chaos mingles with cosmic clutter
All is lost when stars prove sinister
like so many peepholes for a pervert god
Madness makes moves...
I see eyes reassemble for nonsense
Their only crime was observing
So many sad faces and I'm sick like a benadryl boomtown
Scenes full of primitive make believe
Haphazard halos and plastic queens
They disperse for stranger tilts
fluorescent hums and cancellation
Torn between vanity and breathing
Raised on R ratings and nicotine
Box forts in the junk pile
Yellow sky and rat king stances
Footsteps shrouded by loud speaker urgency
Where do they go?
Time runs low on another freak show
left in shambles by habitual slow motion
Pluck the remnants of distinction
pure intentions may rearrange promiscuity
We are only human
We are only a collection of frantic omissions
These distractions come potent
These observations become motives
Excuse this mind that remains remote
pondering sickness and considering ghosts
One last party for obscurity
One last dive into the spill
I never wanted your minds or graces
I only wanted this banshee to stay still
It's been a strange day
