The Pattern Of The Problem
You appeared that night
calm appreciation
in a long forgotten town
You were the only person listening
and you sat in the front row
I strummed my guitar
and tried to project my song
above the boisterous crowd
It was busy
and I knew many faces
but I didn't know yours
So I sang to you
my audience of one
When the gig was over
you had evaporated
and I was alone
I married a woman
the following year
She was ruthless
and you found me
in the wreckage
of...

Forcing Myself to Write for Some Unknown Reason
I never know what I'm trying to say.
So I wing it.
And, try to write something.
Precise.
Cause,
English is not a good language for poetry.
It sounds so choppy.
So malformed.
Bereft of inspiration.
Borrowed words from passing cultures.
This is narration.
This is the tautology.
Of stating a fact.
Forcing myself to write.
So I don't forget the difference.
Between prose
And.
Poetry.
So I wing it.
And, try to write something.
Precise.
Cause,
English is not a good language for poetry.
It sounds so choppy.
So malformed.
Bereft of inspiration.
Borrowed words from passing cultures.

This is the tautology.
Of stating a fact.
Forcing myself to write.
So I don't forget the difference.
Between prose
And.

I wish
I wish
I were your dish
So you would
handle this china ware
with love and care
bang me on your table or bed
but be careful not to break
Lay some meat upon me
hot and spicy as you like it to be
Use your fork and spoon
Play some tune
Raze me ,cut me
or tickle me ,whatever you wish
Eat mousse off me
holding this plate gently
Lick off the choco sause
lick until I'm clean
carry me in your hands
to wash off...
I were your dish
So you would
handle this china ware
with love and care
bang me on your table or bed
but be careful not to break
Lay some meat upon me
hot and spicy as you like it to be
Use your fork and spoon
Play some tune
Raze me ,cut me
or tickle me ,whatever you wish
Eat mousse off me
holding this plate gently
Lick off the choco sause
lick until I'm clean
carry me in your hands
to wash off...

No
There is nothing more weak
And pathetic
And comic
And dark
As the figure of my father
He is cheap
Like a eaten
Crusped
Apple
And I am his daughter.
And pathetic
And comic
And dark
As the figure of my father
He is cheap
Like a eaten
Crusped
Apple
And I am his daughter.
