Hermeneutics
The poet's mind unfathomed
Derange his words
And set them screaming in public streets
Where vulgar thoughts exposed themselves
I have the tattered clothes of rape
Lock, lock perfidious tongue
The bat will not beak my blood in broad daylight
A babarous blistering of my landscape
The simian shape
Call to mind Freud
Master, Ellis and Johnson were pedestrian people
They looked but could understand
How deeply ran
The second command give all life
Was the first to man
Hence the first reason we spoke was love
And if speak God to them
They shall spend their candle
Trying to uncover my state of mind
O I can see
But my words are blind.

Read me with no rules of grammar
I mean what is subject and predicate
And the sentance with no comma
How many meanings would you see
If my sentences starts anywhere
And my words like a judge just sat there
Listening to your fear
Making hope out of my despair
