Imbibe thee ink, or spill me Death
Say what?
Is you trippin'?
Flippin' the script
on what fell off my lip
a quip, I picked just
to flick you the pluck off
now you say, "fuck off"
B'cuz I scoffed at your
accusation of my hesitation
when facin' obligations on my part
yet, you can't see what was dyin'
in my heart...
All I ever truly cared about
was maintainin' what was left
of this soul strewn apart
instead,
it's like I'm dead
on the page...
a designer
without the art...

I think Naajir said pretty much everything that needs to be said. Seriously though,those lines were truly poetic. When.I.frst read the post, I felt like I needed to know more about the context, but after I read it a few times, I came to realize that the context is irrelevant. I think the most powerful part of the poems are the lines that Naajir pointed out. The poem begins as an onslaught, as if the narrator is ready to go to battle. Then, rather suddenly, it opens up exposing unmitigated vulnerability. It's kinda of jarring but in a good way. Great write.

You kinda nailed it... The intent WAS to 'rant' n then surrender to the truth
of a need to "release" that ever elusive
"Inner" us... Thanks a bunch, I appreciate your very thoughtful commentary on my ink. :)

It is sometimes stated that the death of a relationship is when indifference sets in. Where you playing on the quote by Patrick Henry with the title?
