I'm standing adrift in this wooden thing Here in this sea I'm somewhere... I can't see a shoreline There are no clouds A pedestal and raw, starving vultures One, two... six... eight, nine... Empty stomachs, a pit indeed So wide, so many places to grow Freely without a hammer show Separated, tension, squealing, scream, holler, cry... This thing in mind I'm doing the best I can I don't want the scabs to bleed Be a real person needless Walk the Earth dead or alive Drop the shapes cutting holes Bless the bloods that flow Demon whimpers because he knows Chisel chisel, cut him slow Until you're numb and don’t feel it go Savior, that didn't care Brainless flow into the boat Quick flood, under the blood Praise the eternal reign, the Father; Jesus Christ; and the Holy Spirit. |

I LOVED THIS! So brilliant. This thing in mind I'm doing the best I can I don't want the scabs to bleed Be a real person needless Walk the Earth dead or alive Drop the shapes cutting holes Bless the bloods that flow Demon whimpers because he knows Chisel chisel, cut him slow Until you're numb and don’t feel it go that just made me so excited to be reading it! it was amazing. for lack of a better word, perfect. can you find me space inside your bleeding heart? |

Wow, so I guess for lack of a better word "perfect." Thats like a successful and percise military strike. Speaking of military... Thank you -GIS Praise the eternal reign, the Father; Jesus Christ; and the Holy Spirit. |

To be honest some of the stuff you write gets me confused, like you have all these thoughts running over each other. This poem wasn't like that as much, and it was utterly awesome. Nice. Courts. Saved of course. Come on God, do I seem bulletproof? |

As far as thoughts running over themselves... it drives me crazy sometimes, like a random scream of "SHUT UP!!!" at times, while I'm alone... Not always... Just sometimes. But yeah, thank you for the complement. -GIS Praise the eternal reign, the Father; Jesus Christ; and the Holy Spirit. |

Yeah, its a fork with about 5 different prongs. 3 of which are somewhat like plastic floating bridges and the other two are "real" as far as the word itself goes. So yeah. -GIS Praise the eternal reign, the Father; Jesus Christ; and the Holy Spirit. |
