poems
so yeah, went out to the south side for jill's birthday last night, i had a great time, but vahn and jim didn't want to go, even though it seemed they were both planning on it, but they went to some show instead, even though there's a show like every weekend now... but whateva... here's some more poems for y'all... i didn't title any of them ... but i'll probably do it as i go along here...
recollection
recall that glimpse of greatness
because it's the last
you'll ever see
how can this resemble my life?
how can this resemble me?
an addict with some habits
just the old daily routine
i've tried to break away
but nine to five just
doesn't work for me
up in the afternoon
going to bed just before dawn
parties in the backyard
waking up soaking wet
half naked in the front lawn
clean enough for the party
later on at vahn's
either out in the city
or back in the 'burbs
we celebrate our addictions
like mud celebrates worms
Comprehension
she looked at me
like anybody else would
i took her hand
like anybody else could
i looked away
wondering if i should
too many times
i've fallen down
and all too often
i'm wearing a frown
i filled the tub
in which i drown
but never again
until i find
somebody with whom
i can peacefully lie
to blossom with
and bloom for
to understand me
and comprehend her
slow down
it rises up
behind your eyes
your senses flare
emotions fly
slow down
you're moving too fast
a chain reaction
manifest your hands to fists
the bullets are flying
but noone is safe
from words thrown like daggars
slow down
you're moving too fast
keys hit the ignition
the clutch then the gas
but you never hit the brakes once
you just cruised right past
slow down
you're moving too fast
you let life pass you by
while you slaved for your dollar sign
did you take the time
to see those you made cry?
or were their faces just a blur?
slow down
you're moving too fast
STOP AND TAKE THE TIME
TO TASTE THE LIFE
THAT PASSED YOU BY
BEFORE YOU CRASH
BEFORE YOU DIE
leave me some love, peeps.
