Poems
Jan 2013
Strays
He screamed
From what he couldn't see
He screamed
Through the in betweens
And screamed
Of all the things
He never had
Never chanced
For more
Never stood
For more
Than he could afford
A man it is
A mantis
Atlantis in a war
Of sees
Sinking
Quietly
To piece
es
Predictable
Board
Fishing
For
The rewards
Of discord
His apple rotten
To the core
Crying
For
A *****
Amidst the horror
In the store
Of euphoria
In delirium
In the serum
That nearly killed him
Magnificent
Is the malignants
Of his presence
When rejected
From the projections
Of nervous lessons
lessening
The blemishes
Of the beautiful
Reluctant
And dutiful
He paints the faces
With razorblades
And shame
Carving plates
From skin
The sin
Is only in the flesh
Cut the cancer
Win the contest
Of contested
Blessings
Bleeding
From the lips
Of kids
Victim
To the blips
From beyond
The calling
Of calmly talking toos
Three cubes
To clueless
He knew this
As a dream
Within a dream
And construed it
Through another stream
Beaming
The misleading
Lights astray
He was dead
And seething
Perpetually
Grieving
But he likes
To play
I boxed him up
But
I will show you
Someday
Maybe sunday
Okay
