the vessel

Jan 2015 Spencer Craig

ray

i feel the depression, crawling back up through each and every seam. regurgitating itself through my soul. wrapping its thin, sprawled, delicate-yet-violent, wrinkled fingers around my spine. slowly transfusing through my veins, transfixing itself into the roots
of my brain. it's taking me over, in the way the water enraptures a
vessel, slowly sinking to the bottom of all bottoms; a vast,
empty, nothingness; a hypnosis incomparable to any other.
tell me, how do i swim to the surface? how do i learn to find
my way? seemingly simple to those looking down upon
my wretched, decrepit soul. to look to the sunlight and
swim toward. but, what if a weight is growing over me;
something i cannot prevent. something dragging me back,
relentlessly, time and time again. a virus spreading
throughout my body,
the longer i live- the
worse it becomes.
so, further, and
further,
i sink. tell me, tell me, what is there to do now?

Okay, so I had a new idea. This is yet another series that everyone is welcome to participate in called: "Get The Reference?" and you title your poem: Get The Reference (Series) and then you write something that is a reference to something else, you know, like a book series, tv series, movie, game, popular youtube video, inside joke, etc. and if you read a "Get The Reference" and you get the reference you repost the poem.

No negative comments please though, if someone posts a reference to something you get the reference to, but don't enjoy, just don't repost. Simple as that. No need to offend. let's all be nice. just thought this would be fun. Oh also, if you are doing a "Get The Reference?" post, include the hashtag #getthereference and comment on this post to let me know you did one so I can check it out.

Sorry if people are getting sick of my ideas, I just thought this would be fun. Add to it as many times as you like.

HI! CHALLENGE IDEA

HI! CHALLENGE IDEA

okay so let's just spread some love
if there is a poet on this site who you think is awesome and deserves some recognition, just because, let's brighten someone's day.

So you label it "You Know Who's Awesome?"
and then in the poem section you write their name then you literally just post that. oh and if you want, include their name as a hashtag and in the notes write WHY they are awesome or if you are in a rush you don't need to include hashtags or notes, just announce to the world they are awesome and leave it at that :)

here, I'll start:

You Know Who's Awesome? (sorry, this would normally be the title)

Frank Ruland :)

because he is hilarious and a really cool and kind guy with serious talent in poetry. Deep dude, and just super awesome overall. SPREAD THE SLOTHIFIED LOVE!

HEARTLESS

What?
Oh no that's alright

I never liked my heart anyway

By all means, please
go ahead and beat the living hell out of that useless thing

all it does is get me into trouble anyways.

Please, go on

Rip it out of me and stomp on it

Pierce it with a poisoned blade

What do you care?

You don't know how that would feel

How could you?

You've always been

And will always be

HEARTLESS

I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him I hate him except it is difficult not to text him.

You're lucky *******

You are really lucky my best friends don't know where you live.

You are probably very attached to your limbs. It would be a shame if they ended up UNattached. Careful. My friends and I are insane.

Normal girls:

Girl: And that's what he said!

Friend: Oh, honey. He is a worthless ******* he doesn't deserve you. You can do so much better. Here, I'll be over in 30 minutes with ice cream and your favorite movies. Put on your sweats and we'll ***** about men for two hours.

And then there's us:

Me: There, that was the entire conversation.

Best friend in existence: K you get the chainsaw I'll get the knives.

Me: K cool. Meet at the flamethrower store.

Her: 10 minutes?

Me: See you then.

bronx street corner

Dec 2014 Spencer Craig

mark john junor

bronx street corner

she became a new york city
street corner fixture
acted like its the only place to be
acted like its the place for the persecutor to begin
after all all men are guilty
none are forgiven
so she painted false hearted judges
to prop up her proposition
to subvert the natural truth

she lied when it came down to the last hours
but i was unsurprised i had seen her coming
the deception was the rationalization
means to the end
just because you can lie means you should
integrity means so much more when
there is no shame in the game
so once again i ask
just because you can lie means you should
isn't it about change
or was that just part of the lie

i walked away
on a north bronx street corner never to return
no regrets
she had sold herself at every chance
for two bits silver
for a lies chance to shine
but i will not be there to suffer the consequences
just because you can lie means you should
isn't it about change
or was that just part of the lie

how fragile this thing called truth...how easily it sway to suit
