The Bendy Girl
been up since 2 am
surf is high
& I'm riding the manic waves
careful to avoid the undertow
lest it drag me into deep waters
where the voices bite
nasty little demon sharks
tear into the mind without mercy
no whiskey today
to balance things out
so I drop a Xanax
it has me mellow
a straight jacket
little round orange one
help me walk the line
the fine one between
insane and sane
truth be told I love riding these waves
gives me inspiration
a switchblade to carve out my thoughts
been up since 2 am
awoken by porno playing
on a constant reel in my head
couldn't get off in my dream though
later I'll look up the bendy girl
getting pounded by twenty different men
& for awhile put my demons back to bed

Twenty different men, eh . . . After awhile she will be murmuring . . . "Ah, this can't be the end, y'all start over again . . . When y'er hot y'er friggin' hot."

You're going to be a classic, Brenda. You're subject to the muse in all her forms.

This reminds me of the main character in the play Phaedra's Love by Sarah Kane: a clinically depressed prince who watches porn, masturbates, and sleeps all day because he lacks the energy to do much else. This poem is very powerful, Crimsin, and the new font and layout you've chosen signify a slightly new direction which I'm glad to see you take, as this is one of your most intelligent and searing poems yet.

I love the way your mind works...When I was on hydrocodone my mind would float off on beautiful journey...A fantastic crescendo as well

My Beautiful Brenda...how i can hear you reading this to me in that voice and tone I wish to devour as it's against my ear...damn girl...I'm angry I didn't get to spend this time with you today...this is brilliant as always and your mind is one which always leaves me in awe of you...all that is you...more and more every single day if that's even possible....
I love you so fucking much!
xoxo forever yours - Taryn

Riding the waves of mania,
inspiration and enegy crashing in from all
directions. The way you've expressed it was simply
amazing, Crim...

switchblade poetry, Crim,
carve a little hideaway out of a dream;
it's takes a gang to do her right...

I loved your almost backhanded playfulness with your emotions and state of mind at the beginning. And then you dropped that ending and I lost it...fits of spasmodic giggles here! My beautiful lady, you are exquisite! Much love... :)

reminds me of a recent time on gabapentin and oxycontin I really understand what it is like to be standing on the edge of sanity - I made many strange new friends then, few of them based in reality,.....
I digress but you got me to thinking with this wonderful ink :-)
