#xray - Hello Poetry

x-ray room sensory overload scan the trouble in the hope that it goes but it never ever does I read your faux-punk movements easily as I read the mirror's expressions I'm sick of your questions I thought I answered all I had to when I said I wished we'd met when we were both younger and naiver to the way of the world and it's tiny inhabitants that want to prove themselves all too brave; I'm as shameless as a dying something--anything. I say too much to anyone but it doesn't bother me anymore cause I don't see the sense in staying any longer than I have to.

If you saw an x-ray of my heart, I wonder where you'd even start.

X-ray of my heart

If you saw an x-ray of my heart, I wonder where you'd even start.

I met a girl with X-ray vision. She found herself quite smart. Yet despite Her fantastic sight She couldn't find my heart. There was an ***** that pumped blood But surely there was something more. So she climbed Into my mind And opened up a door. There she found Things somewhat profound, But they were not of any interest, So she rose And found the words I spoke In the chasms of my lungs. She saw debate and The arguments I fought She saw what I cared about But it was still not what she sought Then she leapt into my hands And saw all that I wrote She tried to find double meaning To the carefully chosen words But there was no leaning Or things of note. So she gave up But began to fall For when asked what I cared about My girl with "X-ray vision" Knew that she didn't know me at all

The plump nurse called my name and I followed her to the Xray room. Take off your jacket she said . I took off my jacket and placed it over a plastic chair. Have you a pacemaker or medallion around your neck. I said I had neither. Can you take off your shirt please she said. I removed the shirt. Lay on the couch on your back she said. I eased myself onto the couch and lay on my back. Lie still please she said. I lay still. She walked into a screened off area and did whatever she did and a light came and went. She was behind the screened off area. I was there alone just the Xray and me. Ok you can go sit outside while I check the film. I dressed and sat outside. The waiting room was packed and hot. After a few minutes she said you can go all is fine. I got up and walked out having been x rayed by a plump nurse On a hot day in late May.

I know I'm nothing, to you and to me In fact if you did an X-ray you'd probably find a tombstone in my cold and dead chest cavity I have tried resting but I can't do that reliably Because my brain, while my most valuable ***** is sometimes, if not almost all the time My biggest liability My inability to remember is very hard to forget Forged in foggiest messes is maybe where my head is currently set I'd go to my own world but I'd be driven mad by being alone I don't know what to do and what to look for in my own zone...
