Why, oh why
Does the blood continue to
Flow
Through this useless
Meat
Which longs for that
That is denied by the
Gods
Forced to live a monk's
Life
Though surrounded by many
Flowers
I am unable to touch
I float by as a corpse
Tossed about by the sea
No saving grace
To revivify my aching
Soul
And so I drift
Longing for an end
To a meaningless
Story

untitled (1/28/12)

Longing, longing
For that sweet caress
For that soft warmth
For that intense passion
How do I make it last
When they won't stay
But a moment
How do I rise from this
Cold sleep
When they do not want
Me

untitled (1/27/12)

For a moment
I gave into the
Dream
But like all dreams
It ended
She came out of
Nowhere
Touched me with her
Warmth
Her laughter, her thoughts
But she couldn't
Stay
And like all the other
Illusions
She dissolved away
Back to whence she
Had come

untitled (1/25/12)

The sadness settles on me
Again
Like a blanket of falling snow
Love out of reach
As always
The loneliness
My constant companion
Why I still cling to
Hope
Is truly beyond me

Is is over
Already
She came in like a
Thunderbolt
Shaking me out of my
Stupor
Breathing life back into
Me
She saw so much in
Me
More than there is
My heart swelled
But I always wondered
If it was just a dream
And now she has withdrawn
Made a glorious speech
Which may have meant
Goodbye
And I am sad
For the time was too
Short
And I have not fully
Waked
From the long wintry
Slumber

untitled (silly rant - 12/2011)

She's so much better than you
Little girl, little girl
She's so much better than you

She's a woman
Little girl, little girl
She's a woman thro' and thro'

Out the window I look
Following the clouds
As they billow across the sky
"Count the beans!"
"Count the beans!"
Yell my bosses
Yell my co-workers
"But I was just looking
At the clouds," I say
"The clouds are not important!"
They say, "Count the beans!"
"That is what is important!"
So back to the bean counting
While my mind dreams of clouds.
