Rigid denials carved reflections in the floor
In beer drenched coats and thrown away inhabitations
Tussled hair and sweat soaked shirts
Throwing caution to the wind
...
I wanted to write some poetry
An appraisal if you like
A flow of words and sentiment
That appear faster than I type
...
I forgot, these promises I made
To my false deity
The God of all things saved
I prayed, to the empty space
...
My soul crushed,
Above and below irreputable dementure.
Solicited lies hounding at the door,
Tearing down the scafolding,
...
Summer come, and summer go,
Winter breath your frosty ire.
Whisper leafy melodies
Across the old log fire.
...
Wherever tears have fallen,
Broken flowers bloom.
To salute whatever sun
Has the patience to resume.
...
Hush little bells; your euphoria is my insanity
Constant and deafening; you bleed me of thought
Shall I pluck the rose from my garden, and flatten it for my collection?
Answer me now!
...
...If the sky were a deep dark purple,
And lakes were fussia pink,
The daffodils a seedy red
And the grass in rainbow ink...
...
Sometimes I find myself to sympathize
With the black cold winter night,
And I, of chilly disposition find
Unlikely comfort in it's plight
...
