Left

Left, alone with the heckles I lie unordinary daydream gone awry dumped and dented while putrid painted gardens lost sight me, just south of nothing this night Gone, the nerve of ending it all flash~back hear blackbird's call writing drips as crimson bleeds hearts stop to take in the scene pages tossed in a failing breeze Left, alone with the heckles I lie just right of the truth dancing off yellow tongues of political prose smelling like a rose, I do suppose all is known as hatred slowly grows

It reminds me of my state of mind when I wrote "Recomforted" but there's always a silver lining to a crowd...You expressed the pain so well (tho. I like poems not to be linked to poet's life) Well done!

I like the way it's written, so nebulous. I wish I could write like you. Mine is always so vanilla. As far as politics, I'd rather wrestle a bear..

I can understand...damn politicians. I guess the Dem speaker had to get out and stop Trump from doing something, that's all they are good for.

Yes, Illinois politics inspired. No budget for 2 years now. They called a special session today to work on it and the Dem speaker called the meeting after 7 and 1/2 mins ...cost tax payers $50,000 and still no budget.
