I wrote this piece after I discovered Vladimir Mayakowsky's "A Cloud in Trousers" piece in a book of poems my English teacher lent to me. I wrote it for my best friend, whom I have a really, really, realllllllllllly big crush on (yeah, I'm dumb. Get used to it.). So...yeah. Be honest. State your opinions like they are. But give me reasons at the same token...Okay, enough rambling. Oh, and just to give you a warning: There is some hentai (perverted) stuff in here...but it isn't too bad. heh heh heh....

----------------------------------------------------

"Intact"

Don't you see?
I have been overcome by
Stupidity's greatest ally!
I fight within to suppress
Impossible emotions...

Yet it devours me whole
And I can't escape
Its painful bit
Shreds my skin as tears
Never fall;
But instead remain in
The reservoir

I'm sorry that I
Allowed this to happen...

So make it stop!
Yes!
You must take Stupidity's
Friend and shred it!
Burn it!
DESTROY IT!
Do it now while I'm still weak,
While I can still bear the pain

I look for Diana, but she's gone
On another hunt?
Or is she hiding her face as tears
Dark as she
Flow with mine of white?

I'm tired now
So I will sleep
But my first thought
Will be of Stupidity's lover
Which you haven't
Destroyed
Sleepless dreams fill my mind

Chatter fills the room
As peers fill desks
Lost in my own world

Spraying my face
Beating my back with soft water
The lull of
My breath
Calms my mind

But life resumes
Filling me with joy and pain, hatred and nothing
Stupidity's
Ally
Friend
Lover
Pumping blood, fuelling emotions
Left

Intact

This is Beautiful! I really liked the tears in the reservoir & the reference to Diana. I was looking for the perversion but I must have missed it, although I must confess I am rather partial to dark poetry.

The perverted stuff is with the part with Diana. Thanks for the compliments, though! >; )

Yeah, I prefer darker stuff, but I haven't written much lately...sniffle, sniffle!
