I walked among you
i slep t a mong you
in a dizzy array

i will fry before you
( lump of human flesh un dressed..


a world of difficult things
and someone is saying its better,im sure

i want to read this and hurt
i want you to read this and hurt

i
mind more if you capture me
before i fall asleep in fron t of the t.v
a day well done  release me

dont worry
really
really (grasping for air
       clawing at my throat
         erasing a dream
         this is serenity
         this is false hope)

i will go to shop at t he supermarket of sin
oh god , let me in
oh someone let me in

shop ti l l you drop

to preach is to pay

the startling has stopped
and they left me this way

the solving has stopped
and im visible in someone elses rage..



no longer afraid of the dark or midday shadows nothing so ridiculously teenage and desperate

So, could you, like, make me a complete collection of poems and email them to me?     great job! As always

I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me."

really enjoyed the poem, especially liked the "supermarket of sin" image, I do all my shopping there, mainly in the vice department.  

It's in your eyes a fire that's wild and glorious
Unhibited, unfinished in everything I do Let the morning rise like our hearts desire" whipping boy
