Vexed
3 a.m. again
Must we always meet like this?
Restless legs and mind
Peace eludes me still
Sleep, goddammit! Go to sleep!
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck!
Out of my cocoon
Pen in hand I seek to purge
Silence all the noise
Vague ideas float
Words refuse to fall in line
Fucking stubborn muse
Why delude myself?
No one wants to read this shit
Just a wannabe
Moon on untouched snow
All the world seems comforted
I alone am not

You are most definitely not alone. This ground is full to the brim with moons on untouched snow.
The bloody metaphors smeared in this is inhuman!
Great piece!

You may be crediting me with more depth than I possess....but heck, I'll take the flattery anyway!
Thanks for the visit and the read. :)

The next comment seems to be discrediting you with less shallowness than you possess. (What a tangle!)on
I enjoyed reading this again.

Superb imagery. Silky ink.

Thank you for your support. I've had a frustrating dry spell. I think something half-decent is brewing though; stay tuned!

Haven't we all thought that at least once? The ever eluding sleep is never kind to one's thoughts

Oh, I find it far too easy to think this when surrounded by so many outstanding poets here!
Thanks for visiting. :)

Moon on untouched snow
All the world seems comforted
I alone am not
Yes...
But...
Then...
You are not alone
All life owns a restlessness
Moon moving on snow
All the world seems comforted
I alone am not
Yes...
But...
Then...
You are not alone
All life owns a restlessness
Moon moving on snow

I don't know that I know you well enough for you to be writing about my writing proclivities :) The piece is spot on. I enjoyed the peaceful passage about snow and Moon at the end...kind of a delicate sorbet after the feast. Brava!

It was a beautiful wintery night when I wrote this. The last bit was the only "real" poetry that appeared that night. The rest was just me complaining....glad you can relate!

That's exactly what I thought when first I read the piece...the poetry eventually emerges from the shit :)
