Matt Mondschein Poems

Oh! My
How I did steal
Taking from hearts
Taking that which was not mine
...

My first pleather jacket
In all its' fakeness
Bumble-bee yelow
Black stripes
...

The past is gone
As a matter of fact
The mistakes I made
Forgiven, unto Gods' eyes
...

So, you turned water into wine
You've waltzed upon the open seas
Drifting so languishly, seeking only love and peace
Am I to believe?
...

Upon my return
To an old torn and tattered grade school
With drab brown floor tiles
As worn as a dinosaurs bones
...

The torch slowly fades
The burning sensation
Languishly depleting into another
Pepsi generation
...

I realize, we all must go
Where in GODS' name, where?
Hell, perhaps only heaven knows
...

Here we go again
Sign after sign
Only but, for a brief time
The willful deceit
...

Now, the noose
In all its' horror
Past and present
Shame and disgrace
...

Politicians, senseless spending
Ridicule without ryhme, never ending
My dream one party, one race
The human kind, now on a climactic pace
...
