Word Garble Poem by Simon Lawson

I covered my walls in nonsense
then I blindly looked on
blurred colour in the corners of each eye
maybe my peripheral was inspired...
I covered my walls in nonsense
with fragments of literature
spun like nylon
out of context
you see it's all very well
to sprinkle tales on your pillow
and inspiring tidbits in your tea
to rinse and repeat with motivating articles
and walk to the beat of something soulful

I could paint my lips with sweetness
but it would not make me kind
I could fill my room with books
but remain ignorant

I could say I will try for happiness
but that doesn't guarantee a damn thing.
