No. 6

..and The Last shall be First, and The First shall be Last..



I don’t know…and that’s what I don’t know
I offer no clear cut Observation
This shizzle? You can ask the administration
But sometimes seems like these threads by Definition
They’re stitched together; poems…*these writes
Possibly sewing up someone else’s loose ends
Nice sized bytes making amends
Setting the trends between a failing-to-a-sailing grade
Maybe supa-sizing an almost “B” that's beginning to fade
Needing the “proper input” Needing the right-sized bit of Creation

See, we really don’t make nothing
But we’re always trying to score something
We see-feel, then we manipulate
On occasion accentuating the already created
Already, that which is something
Not a dumb thing…given the right leverage  
Attempting to keep a good-to-better grade point average
Despite the devil; we're keeping life at an acceptable level
Avoiding any type of negative Destruction
That’s a superior function

I don’t know…I’m just saying
Are these writer’s *writes? Are they honoring ALL Rights?
Are they the seed & feed for someone’s term paper?
Like the one needed by that psych major
The one penned about a past due “makeup”
As you know…this ain’t math.. Nor is it rocket science
But it can & does support an avid reader’s reliance
Wherein one can near-ace at the lab with a drop on a “good breakup”
The one that’s now past due for a past due make up
Where saved by the bell is what’s called a nice post-up
From rejection to Correction; to that tuition protection
Just credit me a footnote on my NEXT selection!

End of Collection.

the poster says
"to be announced"
but why put a poster like that up?
maybe it should say:
"i wanted to tell you that i haven't made up my mind
as to what the fuck i will tell you so you'll just have to wait
but at least i'm being polite enough to tell you i don't really
know what the fuck is coming up and i don't even know
(and you'll have to excuse this personal aside on a poster this public)
what i'm going to be wearing tomorrow
hell i don't even know what i'm wearing right now
except for the shoes
i know which shoes i'm wearing
it's those ones with the really complex soles with the tiny groves
that take forever to get dog shit out of
and they swirl around making shapes that slightly resemble the water
at night
under the bridge down the block that's deep and scares me
because i always start to feel what it would be like to fall in
from standing too close which i always do and it would just take
some loose gravel a slight twitch from a tired knee or me
so i wanted to tell you that i haven't made up my mind
and that's why i put the poster up"

Oh you are something very special Mr. Johnny Quid.

DEPRESSION 1.0

1.   OBSERVATION

Describe true depression
To those who never felt
Blue go to black
Looking at the belt
Easy way out
Do not have the gall
To dump all this
On friends and family
Too much guilt to inflict


2.   DEFINITION

Coming and going
A black deep inland sea
Forms in my brain
Washes over me
Feels like I am over my head
Pull the blinds
Eyes covered
In a veil of gray

3.   CORRECTION

The endless juggling
Of pills in combinations
N 4 conjugated nine times
Some pills work
Not forever, not all the time
Sylvia...is this why
You put your head
In the oven


4.     DESTRUCTION

Exorcism seems so sound
Not scientific
No longer respected
End of the line
Get those nameless
Awful dark values
Out of my mind

5.   CREATION

Bending down
Without breaking
Like a willow branch
With a short noose
Fall to the ground
Waiting for me
The silent tears
Of a caring tree

That was brilliant Kitty.. I believe you left out the punctuation marks and conjunctions on purpose.
Smooth read and great poem! Thanks Kitty..

Nas....I have to thank you...I was writing a poem on depression and then you posted your competition....Depression is such a large topic ....it lends itself to being put into different parts......Thank you for your comment. Kitty
