I swear sometimes I am only depressed on cloudy days...today is sunny...this poem has nothing to do with either...does anyone actually get what I am trying to say...anyways...here's to you words.

Graduate perspective

Sown to contrast
As change
Better than
Trailers

Pitchforks
And rubbish
Magnolia pie
And Rhubarb vespers

Cackling to dawn
Pouring gasoline
Lighting charisma
Celibate as a monk

In the seventies
Loving Betty...

I may not always get what you're trying to say, but I try. My responses are usually based on my initial reaction. I always appreciate the writing in itself, but no, I don't always get you. I wish I could say otherwise, but you asked and so, you get the truth. When I do think I get you, I am actually afraid to presume to say as much. I am intimidated by not only your writing, but the depth it points to. So why do I keep reading? Because that same depth draws me to.

Sorry, for being a bitch. I don't want to fight w/ you.

Water on Mars


Fragile like a firm hand shake
Gentle for willpower
Willing to be anything
Brighter than sunshine

Afraid of the dark
And suicide
Bleeding more then
Then usual

Pale faced smile
Lipless teeth
Teetering plainness
Unmentionably breathtaking

Victorian
In make-up
Perfect
By grey prose

Trouble
But beauty
A pine cone loving
Cactuses for warmth

Maybe blossoming flowers
Mostly overrated
Bleeding
Time capturing glue...

I think life is jealous of metamorphasis....and me, the old days, yesteryear faded ignorance, when my heart was open, and my eyes holy....tell me wat you think of change...and love.

Gomorrah

So dont meditate
But I want to
Yes I am giving myself cancer
I bet we all are

But why die faster
I have no reason
I am bored
This fate is killing me

I am trapped
I am a sail to a nuclear reactor
At some point I was hope
Chuckling larceny is my triangle tonight

So elephants must walk on turtles
Knives...

Perhaps you could explain it to me one day. I don't know what it is, I love to read and I'll read pretty much anything you put in front of me, but edgar......man I judt don't get it.

My personal reality is pretty far out too. Especially on this subject.

Doobious distinction

Dangerously is a sonata
Gallantry, oh my lord
into the Pageantry
of Virtuous alabaster mastery

To genuflect with me
On the tangerine in my sun
Upon Majestic lean
The Sun dried merciful pristine

Crooning tap, tap, tap
Omnipotent with cotton tasting cherry
goose neck bent
skeletal dosing within merry naked lent

To hang out a willow leaf
Fancy, tripping lips over eyelids
Through...

May they lie of the Canadian goose down
The bosom of my birthed head
A mothers arm and teat
White on walking pink

Of Wooded icicle worlds shielded
Blanketed by trespassing rabbits
Peter jealous of pine
Gnawed by inaction

The Pleistocene fantasy
Willing slaughter at midnight
To chandelier cutters
Void with hushed depression

Work, without play
Rapt rooms
Windows
Voices echoing frozen adjustments

Of...

But goddamnit I was in a crowded room, I was amongst every ghost, I was in my own hell, the epiphanies of ecstasy burnt white whispers, mirrors on the ceiling selling black murder rape, She stole from me children, I loved it like a fountain to a hydrogen vampire. I was happy in the sunlight from the windows above, my view overlooking a small terrace,...

This here is another installment of getting to know some damn poets......


Go Down, Death
James Weldon Johnson


(A Funeral Sermon)

Weep not, weep not,
She is not dead;
She's resting in the bosom of Jesus.
Heart-broken husband--weep no more;
Grief-stricken son--weep no more;
Left-lonesome daughter --weep no more;
She only just gone home.

Day before yesterday morning,
God was looking down from his great,...

i've watched lots of mcqueen, but remember little. i'm into the great escape simply because it was a true story. everything that happened in the movie, happened in real life. the movie may have embellished or made things more dramatic, but it's the closest a movie can get to the real thing without being classed a documentary.
hellsforheroes:
apparently nobody like Langston.......

I spit this shit out day-in day-out...ten fold what gets to be read...who thinks I should do something with it.....if anyone...so yeah, I feel like a tongue depresser...this here piece is called, Langston Blues.



This maybe the last words uttered
I quit
Its okay

My father told me not to shit
Where I eat
Or
Piss in the cash register...
