what a waste Sep 2016
I pride myself on being
the laziest "artist" there is;
I won't lift a finger in
the name of what I do.
No. I drag my fingers across
the barren mountain range,
claiming the rubble left
by the distancing wake.

My pen could never puncture the surface. What makes you think they'll respect the scratches it left?

How bad can a bullet be?
I ask myself this as I place
the revolver to my skull
and fire away at the land
of make believe; listening to the
crickety-clank of the hollow
chambers that trip and stumble
over each failed attempt
at breathing anew --
like a baby taut with its rope
gasping for life but in vain.

I've always felt like a lab rat trapped
inside a cage getting laughed at by
fat cats in pristine white lab coats
These feline felons are playing god with
my anthill mind; too bad I'm a termite
rewired with fine wire terminator style
There's a magnifying glass high
above slinging beams of shine at
the solar panel buried in my back
Rusty and corroded this little robot
took the impossible and imploded

I am the Frankenstein
of my inspirations
A **** poor compilation
of yesterday's explanations
I shave with a meat cleaver
chop liver the nonbelievers
You could never save me
I'm where's Waldo against a backdrop of galaxy sized barber shop lollipops

I've smoked enough
cigarettes to blacken my soul.
Now with each breath I take
I cough and remain in a constant
flux of cat and mouse with my hope.

Your words, if I may, crush
They consume, incite lust
And perhaps divides trust

Your words, if I may, crush
They loom, invite disgust
And most certainly conquer us

I bet they smell good crushed.
I'll take three lines, please.
