sandman cry boy
what is unreal
this feeling
unmade
banished dreams
crying out their little bloody eyes
weeping hollow
inside my chest
what is heart ache
sired by desert seas
chained dead weight
hunted by dunes
devoured swiftly
in sand trap silence
my expendable love

Glad to see you back Brotha ... and with such piercing ink.
This unfolds deftly ...
oddly enough, given the latest school shooting here in the states ... I thought about your piece on "Mary" as I walked my way to work. It's still the most brilliant fuckn thing I've read here on this site ... I shit you not. That's what I told myself as I weaved my way through the masses on my way to my classroom today. I spent the day shadowing and encouraging one of my young charges, who's more than a handful when he's not on his meds ... I don't want him to be that kid on the news, so I'm teaching him to play chess, and maybe write a bit of poetry ... I'll try anything to calm the voices that haunt him.
