It’s against the law to say
you’re needy

I see that written on false expressions

But everyone’s, a criminal
locked inside
an iron prism

These origins, these
empty
vessels

Looking for, a drop
of skin

Filled with scant and burned bereft
and fingertips of worn, down
mazes

We’re the us inside of minus

Ripping off our own
refrain

Wandering on all
forfeit

Leaving tracks atop
the waters

Riding ballads, bold
with blood

That blends with every single
part
that ever
was

Of nothing

These pens we’re trapped in
look
like I

A ball of jelly drinking
vision

Copying the sounds of stains and branches stuck with empty
needles

I told myself
a secret

Today

But I can’t remember where it is

Its somewhere after the sky beneath us

Buried deep inside
a lie

Hue am I
to dye
like this

The back of light, is
arching up

My storm has passed

And now,
at last

The rain is bowing
once again

Ah . . . Wordplay to the nth . . .

Richy you have taken wordplay to a whole new level I think it is closer to therapy. Thanks for the session!
