"botch" poems
People say I’m always late, And that I always make them wait; I take so long to arrive, They could **** me with their eyes. I don’t mean any disrespect; And if I could I would correct This awful quirk of mine, Of never getting there on time. Could I have a broken clock? I wish I knew the method to unlock The secret to a scheduled life, And thus avoid so much strife. I’ve tried the systems, plans and schemes, To change my life has been my dream; But interruptions plague my day, Distractions lead me all astray. It’s not that I am unaware Of Time’s passage or don’t care. No, I savor every minute; I wish I had them without limit. The seconds pass, I feel them go; I mourn them all, you know. I want to hold them, keep them fast; Not let them slip into the Past. And that’s the reason I’m a mess At schedules and the rest; I can’t work fast, I can’t resist; The weight of Time I can’t dismiss. I hope the world will understand Just why I botch up every plan. Confusion is never my desire; Each moment’s like a jewel to admire. I ask your patience, if you please; I’ll try my best to appease; But if I’m late have sympathy, I mix up Time with Eternity.

Always Late
I wasn't always so easily discouraged. I used to bristle with enthusiasm. I glowed with it. It didn't matter if the task was simple, or tedious, or daunting, or boring. As though on rails, I slammed into each and every task with terrific force. But I got older. Things that used to come easily grew slippery. What I used to do without thinking twice, I found myself over-thinking. I threw the brake. I ground to a halt. Finally, I became idle. A left-over husk of a kernel that's already been popped. I drowned myself with doubts. Hypothetical situations that might never happen. I lived in fear of what might go wrong. So I began to watch everything go wrong, as though I was helpless. I was no less able. I was no less compassionate. But I had grown wary. Of what? What was it that, out of nowhere, caused me to slow down? I guess I looked down and realized that if I fell, I would not be getting back up. When you're young, you have no worries, because nothing is relying on your success. So you mess up a math problem. You'll get it eventually. So you botch things with that cute girl who sits across from you. You're young, you'll get it. Re-assurance, faithfully, unwaveringly. A safety line should I fall. But I never really fell, did I? So why am I laying down like I have? Get up. Get up. I worry about everything. I worry that I will fail. I dread what comes, what I can't avoid. But time, and time, again, it comes, and I miraculously don't die when it hits, because I've been bracing for a train-wreck impact, a force that will really, truly, finally, definitely lay me flat for good. I close my eyes, and brace. But the crash never comes. The silence that was continued to be. I turn behind me, but there's no train there. I'm starting to realize, with relief, (with horror), that maybe all I needed to do was step off the track. I look down, and realize, with a first-creeping then-howling laughter that I was never on the track to begin with. I look off where the track is. There's no train there, either. Maybe there never was. Maybe there never will be.

Maybe I'm Worried About Nothing

Some days i am angry, actually most of the time im angry. I sprout out rude snarky remarks, so people can have a reason to hate me. I roll my eyes and cross my arms, hoping that someone can give me a reason to be filled with annoyance. I hand out ***** looks as if they're candy. I lash out on friends and family. I tell people’s secrets so they have a reason to leave me. I break people, and I break things. The violent anger in me never ends. Anger is sadness, and sadness is anger, misery is despise,and despise becomes misery, But the anger is all just a charade. The anger cloaks the victim in me by pushing people away. The victim in me cries lakes of tears The victim in me stays in bed all day, and stares at the ceiling The victim in me craves the feeling of being held The victim in me fantasizes of blades, knives and needles The victim in me cannot be happy for other people's successes, The victim in me craves the sweet comfort of feeling loved by another person that it almost hurts. The victim in me yearns for the love that other people receive. Sometimes the victim and the anger like to play a game. The game consists of the seeing who can botch my brain up the most. The battles in my mind goes on and on, as i lose friends, one by one. The anger tells me to push people away while the victim is telling me to accept the love a random girl gives me because that might be the only love you can get The battle in my mind has now become a war that I cannot win. The anger in me cage's my heart slowing down my breathing, making it impossible to honestly love someone. The victim in me has told me to be sad, so people will care, for the victim urges me to over share my thoughts to anyone that is willing to listen. The anger, tells people off, the anger hurts people, the anger ruins lives. But shrouded by anger, is the victim, the victim who just wants to feel the love that other people are given. The victim in me looks at the word love as if it's a magical word that could possibly fix anyone. The victim in me believes in fairy tales. True love, a princess and happiness. But the victim in me doesn’t know how to love, nor does the anger. Neither know how to love properly, but maybe just maybe they don’t have to love, maybe I can be the one who learns to love.

People seem to say, "Oh, it's totally fake!" "Why would you believe anything you see them do?" "It's all acting." And that isn't entirely true, at all, but many people won't believe me. Now, don't tell me I'm wrong, because this is my opinion. I won't say you're right or wrong in thinking wrestling is fake. All I'll say is, if you think it's completely fake, then I disagree. And here's why. I always ask those I talk to about this the same question. I ask, "If wrestling is fake, then why do people actually get hurt?" Then I say, "If wrestling wasn't real, then people would never get injuries that either cost them a few months, or force them to retire." The reason why I always say this, is because wrestling isn't a joke. I see people actually get hurt because they botch a move, or land wrong. I've seen punches and kicks actually connect, and cause someone to get a concussion. I've seen people get dislocations and broken bones, and wonder how long they'll be out for. Sure, there are things that can be overexaggerated. And I won't doubt that injuries can be purely storyline driven. But, when the person is actually hurt, and needs surgery, how can you call that fake? How is it fake if the injury causes someone to have to hang up their boots for a while, and go into physical therapy to recover? How is it fake if it can cost people their careers, or their lives? Remember what happened to Owen Hart? He was supposed to come down from the ceiling, but the thing broke, and he fell all the way down to the ring. People didn't know whether it was real or not, but he ended up dying from injuries sustained from that fall that same night. Wrestling isn't fake, but it is scripted. The storylines are scripted, I don't doubt that for a minute. There are many wrestlers who have feuds on camera, but are friends behind the scenes. There are people who act like heels, but are the nicest people you'll ever meet, or the other way around. Mistakes are real, and the bumps they take will actually hurt. There are things you can fake, and it does take acting in order to portray the right emotion. But when someone breaks something while wrestling, and is out for a long period of time due to surgery and recovery, then it's hard for me to believe for a second that it's completely fake. I prefer scripted, so that's what I call it. Raw is on tonight, so I had this thought in my head, and decided to get it out. Okay, that's my library post of the day. I'll talk about something else tomorrow, or the same thing, I don't know. I just write whatever I feel like, and I thought about this, so I wrote it. See you tomorrow, bye!

Wrestling: Fake vs Scripted
People seem to say, "Oh, it's totally fake!" "Why would you believe anything you see them do?" "It's all acting." And that isn't entirely true, at all, but many people won't believe me.

\\\\\\\\\\___------///////// Sitting in the blue-grey stillness Of my bathroom Temperature set to make a perfect balance between hot and cold. Except I am leaning on the cold side, Prickly hairs. Porcelain bowls, cupids, angels, catholic saints, preasthood, Angelic ivory white toilet bowl Stained with our animal **** Over time creating cracks Of filthy streaks Just like how humans carve into the Earth, Denying our birth, Killing our worth, By overstuffing our girth To hide our true nature. Ivory bowl I have just released my blood to you Blood of my ancestors Sacred blood Blood pasted down in this lineage. Deep, deep womb blood Blood of mistakes. Blood of stupid conversations and lies I lived. Blood of my dear dear Precious baby Blood of shame Further ingrained Into this white ivory perfection. Blood of the savage within me Crying to break out While I stand stout And pull my bow Tighter and tighter Sharpen the peaks Of my fake smile. I'm happy I'm happy I'm normal, normal, Normal!!! While inside drums cry To be beaten Battles rage on in explosive contemplation My bodies ovulation Of fertile Formation .... Then the immunization .. I try to move to the beat of the nation But it's a boring station Feeling my souls frustration With this numbing radiation. The baby in my body wails I am NOT(!!!!) To be born To a ship that fails The sails. I am sitting on this Cloy toilet bowl, a mirage of all that's wrong Ring wrought Fought rung wrong Throughout me. I've been living so long Killing my song Killing my dear Sweet, sweet baby Hiding demons behind flesh An obsess to hide the less Only ever the best The best, best, Best, Best!! And now I sit, In porcelain stillness A full release of the wild woman woven deep in my bones and blood Now I sit Smothering myself in the mud I was born in. Once too ashamed to accept the actuality of this physical form. Now I sit In the silence after The storm. Miscarriages, miconceptions Flopped contraceptions Illusions, lost directions Miscarriage means: a foiled outcome Of something planned, Lost dreams, So strongly bound Into my bone. Now I'm feeling Alone. They say you must be empty to be free... Pulling the scattered pieces Off of the wall Reshaping after The fall Courage. Courage.Courage COURAGE!!!! Courageous heart How I let you fall apart I'm here I'm now I'm ready to grow Run free run strong And let blossom The seeds you sow. --thank you-- .. sweet blood.. .

I miss the look on your face when you saw me I miss the smell on of the smoke on your skin I miss the small, silver camera you held in your hand I missed you the moment you'd taken me in I miss the long drives past rolling corn feilds I miss the tissue crumpled in my hand I miss the trailer sat 10 feet from your porch light I missed you the moment that I knew I can I miss the family that I'd never known there I miss my neices blue eyes, curly hair I miss when Aunt Nikkie painted my nails green It started chipping, but I didn't care I miss the fireflies that I couldn't catch I miss the movies you forced me to watch I miss the ashtrays all over the house I missed the jokes I continue to botch I miss the grapes that you stuck by my bedside I miss the feel of my neice on my lap I miss my cousins attempting to drown me I even miss Tristan, whom I wanted to slap I miss the day that they took me out shopping I miss watching movies with them late at night I miss winning money on Grampa's 10 slot machines I miss how hard those mosquitos would bite I miss the day that you bought me a pizza I miss the way that smoked everyday I miss the drive to the airport that morning I miss your face, as you drove away

Yearning
The Life's amazings you've got so much to live fors people love yous are too much I'd rather go out wildly or by botch. My defences are like chewing glass Skittles; they're too brittle, my mouth full of shards I'm spewing blood by the yards, while switching wards; I've tasted the rainbow, the flavour was like **** blow after blow, I've taken all the hits.

Catching the Bus, II: Glass Skittles
*Let the playgrounds be there for children Hosting games which are played fairly Formative minds exercising for healthy future Open grounds let’s them breathe fresh air Embracing bonhomie and fair play Giving equal opportunity and space to each other Playgrounds will nurture the formative years Learning to play with dignity throughout life Growing up to be torchbearers of the nation Healthy mind resides in a healthy body Playgrounds be the venue for diverse congregation Spreading the message that games are not trivial So many feuds are resolved with dignity Children can teach the art of resolving strife A playground can be the hallmark for diversity Giving equal opportunity to all the players Let’s not botch up every possible place for our needs In the name of development, only concrete structures Only meandering roads leading nowhere Let the playgrounds be there for children*

She doesn't stroll on water But makes a drop taste sweet, There are no wings upon Her back But you'll hover off your feet. Whenever She glides into a room No halo on Her head, Her presence transforms any traces of doom, Your spirit will be fed. With hope for all the future What was blindfolded before, Bursts in rays of colour As She takes you on a tour. All unanswered questions, hey! "What is the meaning of life?" She answers with a single smile, To children, husbands, wifes. If She had a halo She would lock it in a chest, Far be it from Her, She thinks, To feel She is the best. That modesty, those charismatic Eyes, that shining aura, Enough to make a dying spirit Rise from out the corner But who guards the Angels? Who keeps watch? Protecting such an important being, It's not a job to botch. For though She doesn't know it If life's cruelty makes Her stumble, Then other souls who matter, Could end up in downwards tumbles. It isn't fair, the pressure, Living Her life for everyone, And this is how the shackled Wolf, Has burst into the sun! Chained and tortured, the Lone Wolf Eventually was blind to light, He needed a purpose, a mission in life, Else die in dark and fright. So now, inspired by an Angel, He has finally seen the way, Manacled but inspired, He grows stronger every day. The Wolf will never be as strong As She who breaks chains for everyone! But as long as She can turn to him, All that matters to him is done. She protects the people from, The cruel, the nasty, the foul, And any who try to move in Her way, Will hear the Lone Wolf's growl. So if you feel a glow one day, At you the Angel may well be shining, And running at Her heels, Her faithful servant, Will no longer be whining.

I used to worry that they'd send you away to a life of imprisonment because they hated you so for no reasons they could explain I used to worry because their tread marks were in our driveway anytime they needed someone to try and pin things on though you were never less than honorable polite, personable, my genuinely good brother I never used to worry that they'd one up my worries and send you somewhere further away than prison I never used to worry that the forces meant to uphold law and justice to serve and protect would walk blindly past the line of no return, to botch their expected standards while watching you slip away I never used to worry that there was an evil force within some people that could destroy the glue holding our family together, then again I was so young so naive, to think that people were instinctively good that people, having families of their own would never purposefully tear apart another's but I don't suppose they ever thought of me and your kin, or beyond that need to bring you down I never used to worry that the system would fail allowing guilty parties to walk free, to have families of their own; to not even recognize the fault and to protect the ones who took you away I used to worry that they'd try to send you to a life of imprisonment, and in the end they did send you away, but it is a place where I cannot visit and instead it is us, who love you so, imprisoned in what we call life, where the fences are the breaths I take, the steps I walk, the beats of my heart the walls that confine me and separate me from the world are the memories and lost time, and of only knowing you through my childhood eyes and the guards and wardens are the haze which clouds my thoughts, unable to still hear your voice or see your face in my mind and my day of release will only come when I walk through the gate, past the fences to the afterlife, where my life will finally begin again.

Misery
Like a stone from home into night I am cast, My need for a story is certainly vast. Thus fleet are my feet as I take to the street, To implore the lore of ev’ry thing that I meet. My interest is incentive to know, Where from rocks roll, how the grass doth grow, When so many things do cross this sod? And who dared on what dirt trod? The unbeaten trails entail many tales, Of travails against which mine merely pale. How came you here, oh cairns and stalks? Confide you in me, I swear I’ll not balk. For I as brave sentinels regard you all, Though I know time will yet see your downfall. And know I better that the ******** of prattle, Will for their own gain seek thee to embattle. Such cowards their duty for continuity botch, Not showing their knowing that it is your watch Holds the stars in the sky, for our fates are all married. And thus ours must follow, when all you are buried. Speak to me then, let heard be your pleas, For I am as a Lorax, speaker for the trees. And for the ground that holds them fast, Loving their present, saving future, knowing past.

Today, we have surgery I sink my chest into yours. Your blood pumping through my veins for a bit, I feel heavy. I want to turn to a whisp. Like the Night Elves in World of Warcraft. A floating blue orb of energy weightless electricity, Spirit in the power lines, like that spark we felt. Tealight in a gas stove, left on for 6 months When I am cremated My ashes will be Kept in little ziplock baggies, Filed away in the back seat of my mothers car, Until she parks in a bad part of town You break in Leave the quarters for the tolls Leave the GPS cupped to the windshield. Then snort me, in my mothers backseat. Thinking you just hit the jack *** That's where I will be. Charcoal cave painting your nasal cavity coating the inside of your lungs like a cigarette. Replacing your addiction. This surgery The Aorta of copper perfume, Scalpels summoning blood, I, scavenged from the wreckage my heart inside you, the rest scrapped in a kiln. If they botch the surgery cold Iron will be the last thing you smell. I, a spark grounding from your chest. Heart still beating.

Surgery
You act as if you hadn't a clue You act as if I hadn't talked to you You act as if I hadn't tried till in the face I was blue I did, I tried I did, but you only sighed I did,rivers of tears I cried Why are you such a ******** Why is your agony dispread Why did you not listen and ended up mislead I beckoned you to come near I beckoned you so I could make it clear I beckoned you but you only looked at me with that sneer So I let you do it your own way So I let you become the prey So I let you crumble in just mere days Now i'll just set and watch Now I'll just set while all of it you botch Now I'll just set as you make another notch If only you had not just listened but heard If only you hadn't let things get so blurred If only you hadn't acted so absurd I sat and I watched you expire I sat and I watched as your situation got dire I sat and I watched as you set yourself on fire

As You Set Yourself On Fire
Never of failure afeared, but of Trying nay at all. To fail final It is not. Success from botch enough Come. Though life has an outlook dismal, Nevertheless with persistence and grit And prayer, things bleak will turn bright. No head afraid can achieve any feat, Which sees not at the tunnel's end light.

As You Set Yourself On Fire
It's shallow How you try to be so deep And it's level How you try to be so steep It's sad How you try to be so cheerful It's quiet When you try to give an earful You're trying And it breaks my heart to watch it Because you're failing All you seem to do is botch it

But I Do That Too
On these blank pages is where I write my story. It has some sad moments, but my story is a happy story. I grew up without a father figure there to guide me. No man to say "Good job son" or play catch with me on Sundays. I grew up large, literally. I've always been a bit on the heavy side. I like to think of it as: "God had too many ingredients to include when making me, so he threw them all in anyways." But I think he included too many tablespoons of self-disappointment. I lack self-confidence in myself to accomplish even the littlest task. I've always felt embarrassed in situations around "cool" people that I always fumble and botch what I'm doing. I've never been with a woman. I think they all were just made to avoid me but I know that's not the case. As much as I may "avoid" them I hate it. I desperately want to talk to a girl, but I lack the words to say. And even when I find the words to say, they all come flying back at me eventually. "Women" is something I think I'll never understand fully or even get, unless I pretend to be a Christian on Christian Mingle. Or Farmer on Farmer's Only. But I digress. Even though I consider myself to be a nice guy, people still hate me. I have no idea why, but they do. It spreads like wildfire around me. People snicker here and people snicker there. It drives me insane. Life drives me insane. My lack of confidence drives me insane. I just want to stand and flip this table onto the ground. And sometimes I want to shout ********* and "this is hell." I just want to stand and start a revolution. Tell people how I really am. Kiss the girl I like. Say **** it" to the rest of the world. Become someone who matters. I just want to stand and scream, but I don't. I just sit back down at this table, typing on this computer. I'm surrounded by friends and tables. I look around the room at all these people going about their lives and their days. I just refocus back on this blank page, where I write my story. It has some sad moments, But my story is a happy story.

Title
I tense my thumb over the bottom right-hand corner of the page and recite a block of text transcribed from a dead man’s notebook. A stuttered requiem without accompaniment. When I run out of lines to botch, I bow my head politely and leave the stage before anyone with a list of names and numbers in front of them can thank me “for showing up.” Outside, a woman dressed like a carnival growls at me, or to me, in a language I don’t understand. The audition sheet she grips prompts me to point her in the right direction. I watch her strut from my present to my past, and neither of us is smiling. Maybe she’s foreign to this place, and maybe, so am I.

Drama
Here I stand alone yet with my husband. He is a rapper who knows me. But he hates me. Maybe it is because I can be so easily the villain he calls me. I am that stupid botch who has never done anything for him. And yes I know it's been 16 years but he still says I make his life's hell. I know I cook but my food not good enough. My cleaning ***** I don't deserve a date because I am a snake. I get hit a lot he said it's why god created man over woman. And I don't get love . But I stay because I do....who knew. I don't love me no more. Let's just zzz be honest. I had to stop loving me because they're ain't no room for me. I am the only replaceable thing . The only non important thing. The only thing here. I be honest I'm afraid. I have fear. He says he lives me. Could that be true. Do darker bruises mean more love. I am a fool. I thought some how things would be cool. And my and his mother warned me to pack my thing and leave but be true. Stand up for yourself don't be afraid. But I have No where to go. Take 5 kids where. He would find m me and embarrass me. Hit me talk bad to our kids. They say it's me. I shouldn't walk away to avoid a fight. ....I ask what do I do. They say I don't know I fear for you.
