I am so sick that I feel
I am so sick that I hear
I am so sick that I smell
Sick of the patented experience

I am so insane I can read books
I am so insane I can converse
I am so insane I can see
Insane because of pseudoscience

I am mentally ill because of what I hear
I am mentally ill because of what I write
I am mentally ill because of what I see
Mentally ill because of segregation & isolation

I am mad because of audio software
I am mad because of video software
I am mad because of editing software
Mad because of channels & mixers in a studio

We are sane because of witnesses
We are sane because of kindness
We are sane because of love
Sane because of strangers

You think you know me
Because you’ve seen my naked body
But you don’t
Because I refuse to let you see
My naked soul

i need coffee
to wake me up
to think
its  necessary
coffee
gone cold
like her blood
frozen forever
useless
now theyre both
in
the
trash

Inside you

is where I want to

be,

thrusting

within the folds

of your mind

penetrating

the sweet softness

of your soul,

throbbing

as I release my love

deep within you.

She said "I'm falling in love."

I said "I'm falling apart."

Quick off to bed now
Midnight is coming
It’s five to Twelve
It’ll soon be another day
Tonight is nearly gone
Tomorrow is nearly here
As midnight chimes
A new day is dawning
Middle of the night
Now early morning!
