Best Goddammit Poems


I Meme, Therefore I Am
forgot what I had set out to remember
when my deconstructed self
discovered there was no authentic anything
saw through it all every granule
how we became the unwitting tools
of smarter people who really weren't smart enough
concluding if this is life
you can imagine what death is like
I can tell...

True Lords
And then I saw her start to dance…

Feeling ‘In-France ',
I sang- 
entranced...

"Once in a whole year
she orders the pizza!"

"The rest of it she's
spinning in place
saying chichineatza!"

But sometime, on the road to danger,
she came longer than anybody inspects,

she came longer
than impressive bereft,

it was a bonger! 
This...

I spend time with a friend 
well, a pseudo-friend 
an acquaintance of sorts 
no, I guess he'd be a friend, 
****, who knows 
one of those types you never really share your heart 
that authentic trembling you 
I guess 
he's more like a radio station...

:you and Your Perfect Life:
You and Your Perfect Life.
You boast. 
Walking the halls like you're the host of this school. 
Well you're not.
You smile. 
Everyone lovingly despises you but they always wanna stop and talk awhile.
Well I won't.
You laugh. 
There's not a care in your world. You don't have...

My Wallet and I
My wallet,
Made of shining black leather.
I bought it a decade ago,
From a Lacoste shop.
It fitted well in the rear pockets
Of my blue denims.
It was happy,
Stuffed and loaded with notes,
Of different strengths.
It even looked overjoyed when
I tucked in your photograph
in one of its slots with a...

Reckless Beauty
Reckless Beauty

 She was beautiful in a ruthless way
 A punishing God's unholy creation
 Taunting men with a brutal lack of conscience
 The whole world was in love with her
 and she couldn’t care less
 So she went on with her charmed life
 Goddammit, that...

City Dream
One hot summer day,
Unable to bear the scorching heat,
I was lying on the floor
In front of the portable fan, and
I saw 
My neighbour's two year old boy
Toddling in with uncertain steps.
He had no cloths on, and
Without giving me a glance,
He sat down in front of...

Art
Always awake,
Always alert -
Ignoring every bit of hurt.
Feeling all the mortal pains
Caused by all my mortal ways;
It's always more than I can take.
Make it stop, please, for my sake.
For goodness' sake.
For anyone's sake.
Goddammit, this isn't a poem anymore.
It's a blatant cry for help, and a...

   the music was pretty flat ~ but her sun shone in stereo that day

   mono was never enough for me ~ double vision leads me astray

   anyway i couldn't stop staring ~ inner man gave the game away

Ordinary Doesn'T Speak To Me
love is some double-edged sword
love is some cliche that still sounds good
riding off the tip of your tongue
into the space of darkness hiding in crawlspaces

love is a blindman beating at my door
he wants in but i'm too afraid of what he'll do
stay out of my...

A Poem Toy
I don't have toys
	And I don't care for any of them either.

	Well no, I do. After the death
Of my friend Dasvina Lee and I loved for a Baby doll.

	I asked to my mother if she could buy
One for me with the next C.F.W.C.P. check.
	She stopped...

Rebel
Sometimes,
I catch glimpses of the future.
It’s never very bright.

Well, that’s alright
Because on cold winter nights 
Any warmth is welcome to greedy fingertips.

It comes from the fire-tender.
She calls me to the feeble light,
Calls me darling,
Lets me warm my cold, cold hands 
above the weak licks of...

How many times must I tell you, monster?
Goddammit, I think it must be the twelfth.
Again! With mud on your feet, in you traipsed.
You are making me extremely angry. 

Goddammit, I think it must be the twelfth.
No Mom, I think it might just be the eighth.
You are making...
