Did you like it ?
Did you like it ?
I, liked it all ! Even the, rust in my blood,
and the last grains, bottlenecking to flood,
downward ;escaping! narrowed slow timed
earth bell, rings distant closer time chimed.
I liked it all ! every fall, each rise its beat,
Pangs of thirst, bad ideas one way streets
taken for granted ! Many boats set sail
without me on board, the bow was frail.
I liked it all ! Let downs, its waiting wasted
and the cracks in the heart salt tears tasted
that elusive youth, beyond walled mirrors
Crucibled parents,snipped sharp scissors.
I liked it all ! Dusty jars brim full of unused ideas
trusted friends in masks, with sharp spears
pointless classrooms with very slow gloom
that endless voice , of brimstone and doom.
I liked it all ! Stormy days,pained a mislaid gaze
fumbling amongst buttons, unzipped skin to amaze,
the cobbled ale ; stumble legged, aspirin and bucket
words sometimes failed, Oh never again ! Fu it.
I liked it all ! The suited best man, a ring
worthless metal, head in the shed to bring,
set free, work has vaccated this place
up the damp endless gully, ah a new face!
I like it all ! Each endless kiss lost by taste,
how many books? Could we fill in haste,
before that journey starts down that hill,
replaced by newborns, with same time to kill?
I liked it all! Sometimes.
