I wish I'd bring you all with me
through cat-slit eyes to make you see
I wish you were all here with me
within the parody of me...

I wish that you would understand
the flash of green and slight-of-hand
when anyplace is better than
every place I'd been before.

I do not wish that you would know,
what it is to want for more,
and never feel a moment's peace---
I do not wish that you know me
or my restlessness of pace
the feeling of a thing that's caged
or feel desire of a kick
or relief of being sick...

For no mercy will I cry
no record be expunged with sigh
no pretty tears from pretty eyes--
All this ugly? THIS IS ME.

*sorry folks...can't seem to quit writing...and? so? guess I won't...smile*

Serenity, I am going to hold you to those words that you will never stop writing.
When you said "all of this.. " you were meant to put the words talented poet instead of ugly. Take care of yourself and keep the paper wet with ink and the poetry flowing.
