Stop
Compare the comparisons
nothing different
Addiction to life can be a real killer
Sitting at the back
watch drunken lass
Laugh without hesitation
One lookers smile
with nervous embarrassment
but i can see the joy she meant
Through the shadow self
the black tar glanced and
slathered with serpentine
wisps of over head lamp light
Turned back internal
Judging glances of the naivety drained
dead eyes
Lying to the truth
is just an excuse
Don't want to be good
can't seem to be better
hanging on the letter
words feast on me
Stillness is still less
Just guess
confess
is it just a mess
inspired by the verse
Con the tact with a single touch
watch this poem lurch
and swerve
Taking turns without direction
Lost within an others thoughts
When is the right time to
