dare

Dare:

It’s unavoidable, it’s a trap

Your colors are flashing

And I can’t help watching

Fall here,

Come here

Get over here

Here, here

Dare…

The lingering of my stare

On the stillness of your motions

Have eluded your objections

Come close

Come closer

And faster

Closer

Dare…

It’s down to a simple act

Blocked by a simpler fear

Hurtling away as I come near

Kiss me,

Kiss me now

Kis me quick

Kiss me,

Dare…

shoulda woulda coulda... excuse the cliché...



i dunno if this poem works, the choice of words is... well... dunno, too much?

am not trying to be smug or anything, but i dunno, maybe i was that pissed off at myself while writing it...

anyway

here goes...





Entropy

Should I trust the movement,

Or the thought of it?

Down in the pits of my apparatus

No amount of good will

Seems to get me through the fear

Should I trust the circumstance,

Or the lack of it?

Back in the days of clumsy ardor

No cares were sufficient to steal

The rush of a good thrill…

Should I trust the movement,

Or the beginning of it?

Dodging apathy

Embracing entropy

Relying on a thread

To pull out the chill

it's an everyday struggle... whatever




There are songs that feelings fail

When they remain fastened in the entrails

I tread easily within such waves

Tripping and skipping

And failing to see

That the emptiness loitering

In the vastness of my despair

Is an overtly accessible

Doorway to my escape…


May I hail the visionary wimp!

inspired by a late night conversation...

on your couch:

Go on go on

Shout and show me your mind

Give me a piece of that dreadful unthinkable state

And take off your load and throw it, hon

Go on go on

You're torturing yourself

I'll tell you, you are going way ahead of your crime

And it's bleeding… well then, save it, hon

Go on go on

We have towels, we're fine

We're clearing our minds of an unbearable vital truth

And we're leaking… to the point, hon

If I hold my tongue

Down someone else's throat

And pretend I can get high on their fate

How far will I go before I crash on your couch?

With my head between your legs,

And your mouth on my crotch…

If I raise my hand

And grab a satellite

Going for a kill over velvet skies

How far will I go before I crash on your couch?

With my tail between my legs,

And your hands on my thighs…

Go on go on

Welcome one more trial

We'll come all over these days of blissful wrangling

And we will rip through all the signs, hon

Go on go on

Bring me down, eyes bulging

And explain to me the lines forming deep on each side

And I'll believe in you and me, hon

I'll believe you and me, we're free, hon… we're free…

what was it you said again?

I dunno why I was expecting things to stay ok... !
so here goes nothing...

Teach me
The names of the storms ahead
And I'll be ready
Come my next December

Give me new features
Make me amphibious
And I will require no more shelter
Come my next December

go ahead and laugh

i wrote that after a small observation in one of my classes...
kids can be cruel to one another, really cruel...


All has fallen

All has fallen

Victim of a tear

A deception really

Like a shriek to a sneer

A pencil down

And his eyes rolling

A surprise but, really

Like a pinch in a dream

Laughter croaking

Hands bending his waist

Bewildering, truly

Yet his guts are sincere

All has fallen

There's no glory here

There is fear but, mainly

A silly trick waning

can i take my mind off an idea?

can i take my mind off...?



(Anti-) Encephalin..:



Ten times a minute

But who's counting?

Scattered rhythms

Along a narrow path

Between a muscle

And an eager impulse

There's no need to slow down

Once the flow has been canalized

Up and down the fat burners

Once the hesitation has been pinned

To the back of a dwindling consciousness

There's no need to turn it down

Let it rise up to the thrill

Let it soar along the trip

Spilling over the sides

Of an image,

Let it rip…

It won't go away

And if it does,

Soon enough, it will be replaced

and so here we go again...

am writing again, and it feels good...


Credence...:


A welcomed guest

It was,

Irony.

We had a pact

It would visit

Every now

Every then

It would not hit

I can't see why the deal

One day burst

With splinters

Lacerating my heals

There goes my wavering

Credence

There it goes

Dripping, dripping, dripping…
