lately, and possibly beforely,
Trees stand by to mentor

August spawned
like Taurus colonizing crabgrass
embedded in...

Tell them!

Look on to my face
And let fall the secret
We hided in the invisible bier 
Of eternity
When all eyes and ears 
were blinded and deafened
By sleep

Right here and there
I never wanted to be alive
This living thing traps my emotions
Turning them into devotion

If this is really what I planned for
Or something that everyone wants out of me
Expectations hourly...

Confession. 
I'm a thief, 
I'm a cheater,
I'm a liar, 
I'm a beater,
I'm ungrateful,
I'm hateful,
I'm bound to betray,
I'm a killer,
I'm a villain,
I'm without feelings, but most of all I'm SORRY


PART 2

For parents a liability, subject to partiality

In the spirit of lowered expectations,
loyalty that’s street corner bought
This Oval Office recommendation
was given very little brothel thought

It was stamped with misogynist approval:
