In a state of disrepair...

Whatever you want it to be...


The wind won't weep to selfless fray
that feeling (almost empty anyway)
Of close despair near everyday.
A sophist angst near ridden dead
will not reflect (on any day)
what your breath will try to say
to you or me... or this... or that.

Just damn it all.
And arm yourself with vapid trysts
Cold emptiness.
These pointless lists.
Are torniquets of silent bliss
That steal the heart
In a single softened kiss

So now armed you are
Against the lies you tell yourself
As if to say "I fought and won."
Yet any fool can tell you this
"No One Is Fooled One Bit.
Not Even You, You Prick."

Yet at least
The wind won't weep
As if to wish you dead.
That you'll have to do yourself, my friend
Since Nature isn't rich.

"Yet at least
The wind won't weep
As if to wish you dead."
The dark side of your spirit shining through, eh?

I found some very cool word combos among the rest, in particular, the following:

"sophist angst, vapid trysts, torniquets of silent bliss,"
