Bloodied And Blurred (NoPoo 88)
Inadequacy
I feel
Is a burning light
That breaks deep
Into the darkness
My thoughts
Meagre words
Are nothing
Like specs of blood
In my eye
There to torment
Laugh at my inability
To find emotional parity
From feelings that tear
But never conveyed deeply
Pretending
I am a poet
Just a poor imitater
Struggling to keep afloat
Gasping for air
Words are blurry
No clarity
What talent
Its a mess of blotted ink
Splattered on a page

You are an artist and a writer, MAN. Feel free to feed your poetry with your doubt.
