Poetry

This is the general category of fuckery that goes on and on and doesn’t seem interested in stopping.

  • Don’t say that

    Don’t say you’re sicker than most

    Not when I’m standing here

    Not when I’m sicker than anyone I’ve met

    Don’t tell me you’re so sick when I look at the spectrum

    All those colours in the dark where I should be too

    At least we’d be together forever more

    Where was anyone when I fell and couldn’t get up?

    Besides trapped on the other side of the screen?

    I didn’t get up I didn’t get up I learned to crawl

    No one noticed at all

    So who am I to judge?

    I’m just more sick than anyone knows

    Because it all just stays

    Right here in my head

  • Look at the stars in twos

    Look at them in twos

    It’s not hard to do

    In twos and then

    Stare far between them

    Do not look at the sky

    Stare into space

    You still see something you rarely noticed

    In twos

    If you have trouble start with Gemini

    Start with Pollux and Castor

    It’s between them and then two more and then two more

    And when you can see them in twos and nothing more

    Every star with a star

    No matter how far they are they are in twos

    And stare in to space

    Just

    Look at it

    You may notice a star blink

    Is it a piece of space between us and it

    Or a change in the star?

    Years ago

    Oh

    We’re in space

    The stars go

    In twos

  • Torn straight down the middle by your say and do attitude

    How in the hell do you say that do this?

    How in the hell?

    And once I would have been overflowing with feelings dripping down like acrid citric water colours

    Once upon a time

    You were everything

    Now you’re anything than what I have

    Merely a comparison in my life

    This is this

    Unlike him

    I love you.

    Fuck you.

  • I do know what I’m missing

    The love song Chester never sang

    And we think he’s alive

    But it makes us wonder why

    If he truly is beside me

    When did these lines start existing in this song?

    He says we’re fighting

    He says stop doing the fucking drugs

    He screams

    Is it kinda like a love song?

    Or kinda like a concerned friend who actually cares?

    Is it Chester or a wayward spirit who feels bad and hasn’t looked at me in a week?

    Do we still feel love for eachother when you’re yelling at me?

    How many excuses can you come up with?

    Fingers in hair that grows and changes despite the flies making us wonder why

    Gripping

    Groaning

    Roaring like a lion

    I’m powerless!

    He says like it’s an ironic knife settled between the third and fourth

    Pages of his life when he wrote the wrong words

    And an ironic afterlife

    If any of it rings true

    But I’m radioactive radioactive

    And I’m not listening to you

  • Sometimes I wake up in the moment

    I look around and I think

    How foreign this all is

    How strange

    Moon rising

    I’m flying

    From one place to the next

    And suddenly the world around me is so new in a confusing way

    The green seems wrong

    The sky seems dark

    Yes the sky seems dark but the spark is small

    And alone

    And as a great dragon swoops from the sky above

    I think

    How magnificent these clouds

    That’s not the way they are back home

    Wondering

    Waiting

    To learn where home is

  • I was wrong

    I can admit that

    Can you?

    Irrelevant.

    The disappointing white petals gave way

    To pink

    Pinker than pink

    They would be purple if not for the white

    They are pink

    They give off the feeling of cherry

    And the petals sink as a river into the streets

    Beautiful pink

    Delicate pink

    They fly in the wind

    Creating scenes merely by being that humans painstakingly recreate

    Effortlessly

    They paint the late spring

    As early spring
