Cacophonous crows,
Teardown curtain, let morn in;
Feel good anarchy!
Laci Apr 2017
Pink toe peek-a-boo
Double dare delight
Peeping moon
Cricket gossip

Rouge secrets
T-shirt carpet
Clockhand silence
Tender teardown

Tattooed thoughts
Just be whispers
Gravitional connection
Equator heat

Midnight goosebumps
Breeze breath
Twisted up dawn
Cotton mouth hum  
Thirsty
Lucas Scott Jan 2020
Here you are, reading some book
When you should be out there
Playing football and eating *****

We got work to do
You gotta move those shingles
I gotta hammer those nails
Don’t carry so much up the ladder at once
You’ll wreck your back and slow me down
I don’t want to be stuck here with you all day

There you are, writing again
You look so different with a pen in your hand
Without packs of shingles on your shoulders

I don’t understand why you do that
You’re supposed to be a baseball star
You’re supposed to win, make me proud
You’re supposed to hate the *******
Crack jokes and laugh at the queers
I just want to be proud of you

Anyway, the last teardown left a huge mess
Put down that pen, grab that pick, and get in my truck
These shingles ain’t moving themselves

Fingers against the portrait.
Dragging the vision into despair.
Landscape lop-sided.
Stock photo nightmare.
Bared against the lies.
Deformation of character, a characteristic cliché.
A teardown of deception is more like it.
But let's lay close to our lilo of lies in the cesspool of sporadic secrets.

— The End —
