Poetry

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

  • Should the line not then read

    I don’t love nobody, but nobody loves me?

    The all mighty reader enters

    We all turn to the majesty of the reader

    Hello reader

    Is nobody a somebody? By sheer acknowledgement the nobody becomes a somebody thus by inhibiting nobody you are creating a somebody.

    One does not usually follow a statement with a disagreeing statement.

    I hate my friend and he loves me

    Ends up sounding like a lament for the friend who loves you thus there is no hate.

    The sentence “nobody can’t live” in fact would mean “everybody can live” due to a rip in the space time continuum and double negatives.

    So nobody loving you immediately must mean somebody loves you.

    Because you just acknowledged them.

    There’s far too much thinking going on in this head go to sleep.

  • Sometimes you’re shooting broken arrows in the dark.

    Sometimes you miss the mark.

    I remember a night in the dark when I asked

    You didn’t get married to her did you?

    I don’t know if I heard the reply right

    But maybe it got so loud because he was singing about her again

    Maybe I could feel him singing

    By now there’s nothing left to go over

    Over and over

    Again and again

    The same album played slightly sideways

    I’ll find it the melody

    When the guitar came alive

    Then went sideways

    I don’t love nobody and nobody loves me

    I don’t love the bottle but the bottle loves me

    I’ll be the actress starring in your bad dreams

    Oh I wondered when I’d get to the piano playing

    I cannot write what I haven’t done

    After all

    That would be unfun

    Don’t you correct me to unfinished you

    When you reset a phone’s operating system does it die?

    Is this a different

    Different…

    A different something probably

    It’s been the same thing from the start

    Cultures and worlds apart

    You say an old man has a slow heart?

    They say exactly the opposite to start

    In the end you’re hardly an old anything

    Or anything

    I’m glad he’s not alone

    That just leaves me

    That just leaves me

    Of course nobody can see me

    If I don’t love nobody but nobody loves me

    That means nobody loves me

    Thanks nobody

    Maybe I love you after all

    At least you love me

    And after all I said from the start

    I’ll love you as long as you’ll love me

    Baby.

  • Do you remember all the reasons

    No way

    You’ve never met him before

    He’s a drug addict

    He loves another girl

    He’s not gay

    He’s not bi

    He’s not going to notice you

    He’s too beautiful

    He’s out of your league

    He’s not the person he says he is

    He’s not the same as he is on stage

    You don’t even know him

    You can’t love him

    I wonder what I just stood in the kitchen sobbing for.

    You can’t love him

    I wonder why I dream of him every night

    The night I couldn’t fly

    And he reminded me how

    I can’t tell you the answer to any of those questions or finish the poem for you,

    But it’s not a crime to love

  • Hold your hand next to mine

    M & S

    I deserve it and you dish it out

    Or you seek to run your claws along skin whispering terrible things while running your tongue over the wounds

    While I wait to be tied up and thrown down

    Hold your hand next to mine our fingers never intertwine

    I realised today that there’s no way either of them care about me and I feel so alone and you say

    That’s their own fucking faults for being terrible people

    While I think I deserve it and they’re both wonderful in their own selves

    Will you bite the owl?

    Only if he doesn’t keep his promise

    How many years will you give him?

    You bite my beautiful blue flame but he doesn’t care or notice so what are you anyways

    Are you calling me ineffectual?

    I’m calling you as invisible as me

    I blew a smoke ring did you see it?

    I’m the only one who did.

    Did you notice Chester hanging out at the corner of our eye?

    Things named after him

    Randomly his lyrics

    Whispering

    Can he do it?

    I don’t know either.

    We’re alone here

    At least we’re alone together

    Tonight

    Alone

    Tonight alone

    I wish we could be together

    I don’t want to be a part of you anymore

    I want to talk to you where our thoughts aren’t tangled

    I want to see you where our sight isn’t split

    I want to be able to calm you when you’ve gone into a rage and can’t hear me

    I want to stop you when you’ve gone.

    I wish we weren’t alone together

    I wish we were together

    I could live without him if you were here

    I always had this fear that we’re trapped in the same body so I’ll never feel able to find someone to love and neither will you

    Zeus didn’t cut us in half properly

    Or he cut us in half and we both feel so unfulfilled because our ones are in opposite directions

    Will you never love him?

    I loved him until I realised he wanted none of it. I’ll never love again. Feel free to love whomever you want. The cat in the hat and the boots and the coat, never plans to love anyone other than this stupid fish goat.

    I wanted him to want it.

    I wanted him to want it too.

    Congratulations

    I love you so much I am so happy to see you insisting on happiness among all the ugliness

    It makes me feel better to know you have someone

    Thank goodness you have someone.

    You brilliant man.

    I’m so happy you found someone.

    結婚おめでとうございます

    I love you I love you I love you

    Congratulations you beautiful owl.

  • The power went out

    Bang and then that silence as the electricity ceases to exist in the walls the floor the electronics

    In my humanoid stupor, in the powerless house, I wandered to the kitchen

    I want coffee

    So I pushed the button on the coffee machine

    And

    Well

    What do you think happened?

    Hermes is laughing like a horse even though he’s more of a monkey than anyone.

    There’s no power.

    He reminded me.

    Gently at the time but now he’s snickering about it like I’ve told a joke only he knows the punchline to

    I can’t help but grin

    He’s right of course we get so set in what is we don’t even realise that it’s not permanent

    The power goes out and the power minded people suddenly realise how powerless they are without power

    Even though it’s so obvious it doesn’t occur until it’s occured

    Like when the internet is down

    And you attempt to Google why the internet is down

    Upon which your browser reminds you there is no internet to troubleshoot the internet

    She tried to turn on the coffee machine

    He thinks it’s funnier because he saw the moment I wondered if it was broken before he reminded me it wasn’t broken the electricity was.

    I can’t really blame him for laughing at me.

    I’m laughing at me too.
