Long Disgust Poems

How unparticular the day had particularly been,

On March the third of two-thousand and eighteen,

To speak no more, and yet away it went

True love is unquestionable. 
What is true love?
To me; it is more feeling based rather than definitively worded. 
Emotional attached, formed mentalities that are equally paired with an immaculate physical connection. 
Collected bi-gender, shared love—
She’s...

Saw a waist-coated white rabbit,
Pass and disappear down a hole

Music to fractious emotions on greasy dance floors
Mistimed cues of flares smouldering relationships

Anger is camouflaged with the cloak of reticence
Ardour suffocated...

A former friend of mine
tricked me into becoming
something I am not

The volunteer President
of our condo association,
a position I clearly cannot afford
midst trifling disassociations.

of arguing about next year's budget
which typically continues
until...

Dregs and tumors of decay

wealthy life.

Those who stand with equal weight,
bipedal-planted, do stand resiliently firm.

Those who strain their leftbrain stride
