Poetic Endeavours Are Not Meant To Cure Us. Part 5-Alone

I just want to be left alone
I just want to be left alone.
Shrill trumpets bellow in the distance.
Leave him alone
Leave me alone.
Impotent I fall through the seams of murder.
Alone,alone,alone.
Eccentric muscles peel themselves away from bone.
Close the shutters.
Because I am gone.

Poetic endeavors are not meant to cure us? Sounds to me that your bellowing of anger quite possibly does cure you. I know it does me. Your words are amazing. I am deeply rooted within these words when reading them. I FEEL them. THAT makes you a good poet. LOL- good...no, great-
