Eli J Tod Poems

The rain starts falling
When the angels begin to cry
To the man in the moon
She curtseys each night.
...

cupid

is a drugloard
...

i had always thought a couple in love
were people who drifted among the clouds
and saw the world
in rosy hues.
...

Captivated
By the crimson life
Beneath the shell
Wondering when to expire
...

I’m bored with life
The hypocrisy of it all
Beware, beware of diamonds
When from the heavens
...

The reality
That should have hit me
Actually seems
To have passed me by
...

I feel trapped
In this world
I’ve been trying to make
Defeated by this thing
...

It is not the things

In the dark of night
...

Dark
Are the curls
Against the sand
A graceful brush
...

I have to stop the record
Stuck forever on this song
I have to start a new one
This one’s been playing for so long.
