Stark organisations of my observations
Respond to beauty with pure elation
Instead of chronic devastation
Process the abject consternation
From contrived over-saturation
And acute mass manipulation
That should be in legal confiscation

From the Girl Who Stole Him and Your Heart At the Same Time
I’m sorry to you from the bottom of my heart,
I never wanted to be the reason why you were torn apart,

Although I take the blame, sweetheart.
Firstly I’d like...

To want to change something so much

If only you could truly forget
The warmth of her beauty, the joy of her touch
And if...

A Walk Among the Dead (Original Version)
In the blackest hour of
the blackest night,
That the world had ever seen,
In the darkest dark,
In the blackest night,
At the darkest hour in between,
I went forth among the tombs,
For a walk among the dead...
On that night...

To stand with respect
At the top of Sharp Street.

As though shrunken by age
Since those seventy years
When they occupied a world stage.
Now they...

Do negative correlations
between inhaling
and exhaling
Earth's sensory WorldView
resemble, for you,
too,
a reverse correlation,
dipolar co-arising
appositional contrast,
in-between grasping on
and distracting off?
I am not sure why
