Box

Written 01/98

My life consists of;
Rambling words
and sympathetic piles of paper.
But words that I've forgotten how to say
to anyone they ever mattered to our involved.
A mouth, I cannot use.

Feelings that change
like the tide,
the seasons,
the weather.
-Maybe a closet of faded disguises
or simply a child that
can't remember the difference between right and wrong.
Either way,
a heart that hasn't been served justice.

Vacant aspirations,
a put off list of 50 things.
Dreams like photographs in an album,
lost beneath the clutter of my closet.
A mind without directories of rules and reason.

People; like the days of the week,
they pass on with some sort of routine.
And I follow unmoved
A body that's lost all function.

Prove Me Wrong

I'm not really sure why but here lately I've been wanting to post some old stuff. -And when I say old, I mean almost 20 years... Maybe it's so I don't forget where I came from. Maybe it's to draw me back to a poetic form of sharing words. We shall see...

I believe that "sincerity"
     is a bull-shit term for liar.
-That "trust me"
     is only an invitation to prove every reason why I shouldn't.
-That "I love you"
     is something that people just cash in.
-That silence
     is something said before good-byes.

Prove me wrong.
Show me that you're an outcast to all of my angry theories.
Sit with me and say nothing.
And keep coming back when I say nothing in return.
