I need to cleanse myself To purge my system To clear these thoughts To start over Don’t do this to me Don’t leave me all alone Don’t say this to me Don’t cast your first stone Can’t you see I’m just A little boy Won’t you please Allow me this one toy? Run Run, little one Find your way to the sun Take whatever you need To get by if you feel You need Times like this My mind begins to rot There are things I am convinced I am not First I feel sanctified, Then just mortified I am now too stupid To realize Somebody please Purify my flesh Strip me down Cleanse me |

A good read on loneliness, especially corporeal loneliness. |

There is flogging, and then there is self-flagellation. We are usually the worst jury and judge of our own decisions and self. As you love others, love yourself, and know that you pen some good poetry, even in the shadows. |
