Retract at once
This damning
Interpolation
Being treated
Like any other
Disrupting behavior
Embrace authenticity
Self compassion
Prevents progress
Put an end to your
Observable impulsive
Apathetic material
Discombobulated magnificence
Wallow in the muck with them
Untouching perfection
Hauntingly beautiful
Undubbed contextual
Insufferably overbearing
Incontextual differences.
Environmental disasters
Supercilious villains
That find meddling best
As focus turns elsewhere
Hiding in plain sight
Inconspicuous idiot
It's never their artistic.
Endeavor
Art is simple
Untouched raw
As good is the enemy of perfect.
And the perfect enemy of good
The discombobulated magnificence of this buried song creation that remains Elliott Smith’s “Abused”

A giant panda eats leaves and shoots,
several handlers and keepers
fall to a spray of AK-47 bullets.
"Why?"
moans an elderly Chinese lady,
blood oozing from her torn body -
she had nursed him from a cub.
In a less than perfect Mandarin,
the animal replied:
"Madam, humans do not understand
how to bear an unbearable love.
Being insufferably cute
the matter has always been
a black and white issue for us.
We love to shoots first,
then we leaves."
Surrounded by myriad friends
at his leave-taking
surrendering his soul, to Whom
and waiting,
waiting for what...
They clasped hands, freely hugged
nodded knowingly
While he waited, waited, for what ...
alone, insufferably alone
Oh, the times I have regretted leaving you
Thinking about what I would do differently,
Wracking my brain for a better solution
To the problems that caused your bitterness
Eventually leading to my giving up on you.
Came the time when I could no longer abide
Your volatile and temperamental malignity
Which made my life insufferably unbearable,
So, I left behind the good times, and I fled
For my sanity, hoping to make a better life
Unfettered with nastiness and spitefulness,
Keeping in mind “beauty is only skin deep,”
How it takes two to make a relationship work.
Written August 16, 2022
like
tremor
of a leaf
in gale force wind,
that wicked fever
coursing through your fingers
electrocute my body.
your hands give me a wealth of warmth
when days are insufferably cold.
in winter, I crave your feverish touch.

Not all thoughts
Are meant to be shared
Harness those loose lips
Use your judgment
Self-censoring is a must
Channel those self-righteous comments
Remarks that are distasteful
Inappropriate and obnoxious·
What you may find funny
Or for some reason slightly amusing
May in fact be insufferably offensive
Deplorable and condemnable
We don’t appreciate these one bit
Don’t take us down that road
Who are we to say but
While you’re at it you may want to
Re-evaluate your lifetime strategy

I want gone the silence of injustice
The tarnation we insufferably carry along
I want gone the vile of ignorance
The dire ism we obstreperously preach
I want gone the cold night of boredom
The beauty of poetry it stole
I want gone YOU
The residuum of smile you left is hollow
IF I were
a broken soul
who could mend me?
The cobbler down the road?
With his crafty skills and many tools,
the awl or maybe stretching tool?
He surely would know
-- and should I go?
My shoes, so worn but my soul so full
of these empty holes!
My Cobbler, sir!
Repair my soul,insufferably
i plead!

In a smear the nicest ink
can insufferably stink.

Malfeasant, mangled, memories
ruthless, regretful, remedies.
Vanishing, victoriously in vain,
Whispering, wandering wane.
Brazenly, broken, betrayal.
Pompous, patriotic portrayal.
Diminishing, disabled I dive,
Astronomically, ailing alive.
Teetering, tenaciously taunt,
hallucinations, honorably haunt.
Painfully, preserving, its past,
Callously, crafting the cast.
Traumatically, teasing truths,
Yearning, yesterday’s youths.
Selfishly, stealing, thy soul,
Craving, courageous control.
Immobile, insufferably idle,
Suffering senses, suicidal.
Admiring, ancestors adore.
whispering rumors of war.
Beaten, blackishly, bound,
flustered faces I’ve found.
Fearlessly, frozen fabled,
defeating dose, disabled.
As i lay in the barren grass
I remember the times we'd laugh
I smiled as you spoke
You spoke i laughed
Without a doubt we always had fun
Spending our days in the summer sun
Sweat on our brows, and in our hair
My sun soaked face from being so fair
you held me close and gave me a kiss
I will always love you ,
You are insufferably missed.
