oh_me_ghost

i was looking for a series of words
somewhere, anywhere,
who the fuck cares
if they're pretty, or rotten, or right
in books and conversations,
as long as i didn't have to participate
in deciphering some
ultimate truth or moral lesson
i should learn
and hopelessly concise, concise in such a crushing
way that i could just be at
eaze without this
great and painful need
to write.
