May 2010
Dreams of working with little objects,
but my fingers are grotesquely fat,
bloated with self worth.
Such frustration,
as the small metal ambiguity falls,
again
between my clutches to clang helplessly on the whitewash table below.
                                            A growing discomfort that is oddly angled and
it’s hard to look away lest someone end up mangled.
Filled with the certainty of a dying man,
I race against the biological clock.
These clichés are sticking to me and
your black thoughts are wicking,
can't you see?
This task is meaningless,
teeming in seemingly endless trysts of error and visitation.

Your mask is bleeding from this,

streaming and adorned in nameless anger,

your own manifested creation.  

So I stare with unyielding disquiet at your unhindered disdain,
and make elastic confessions of comparable pain.
