Premium Member The Constitution of Sadness

Life seemed rather bleak
The grey skies to him did speak
Of a better world
Somewhere, but not here

He was thought of with smiles
Always a good word
A Laugh or two
Who the hell thought, inside was all blue

He dressed up one day
As a gigantic peanut
Of to the circus he did go
Knowing his fate, he paid at the gate

An elephant’s eye lit up
A dessert finally of size
He ate the gigantic peanut
The skies have now turned gaily blue

They say committing suicide is nuts
This irony is that it turned out to be true
The coroner took care, waiting and waiting
At the elephants end, for suicides revenge

As the dark and despondent man quite frankly
Had such a shitty termination
The smell of sadness
Hangs in the air

an editor's lament

I'm sick of shitty verses, mine and yours
Keep them far outside my office doors
	In the postal drawer
	I see eighty-four
Surely I will die if I read more.

I'm tired of lyric cruddiness submitted
By these would-be poets so limited
	In talent and in vision
	I cannot quite envision
What they thought they did when they did it.

Maybe it's high time we suspended
Publication of Top-upended
	So many silly, horrid
	Long epic poems, florid
Each time I get another I'm offended.

I go deathly pale from things like these
Send them to anybody else please
	Blank verse or concrete
	Crayoned or typed neat
Mail them to magazines overseas. 

c.1978





This crappy old poem is from days when poets had to submit their rotten verse through the postal system. I edited a small journal and received 20 or 30 manuscripts per day. And I submitted my works here and there as another face in the crowd. The reality described in the poem is a condition that is even worse nowadays, when lousy poets don't even have to buy an envelope or a stamp to wreck an editor's day!

Alzheimer's Domino Effect Chapter 4

We were on OKcupid… 
I know, I might sound stupid…
But, I am not a waste of time…
I am cute and so sublime
Maybe a little too full of myself…
But, I am yours…
Clean up my act…
I love our kissing wars…
Right now, we have alzeihmers together, forever…
I love how you react…
You made a big impact
On my life…

No hard feelings…
One date and then, a break-up didn’t help my heart…
It broke me in pieces…
But, don’t rip me apart…awkward and torn apart…

Silence isn’t bliss
I’m speechless 
My words are all over the place
You make me blush all over my face…

I love you
I love you 
I love you…
But, now I like you
Because you love him.

If you break up with your elderly friend,
I will make your misery a humongous sack of garbage
For my sake, I love being drunk off of you till the end
But, you better not leave me hanging there like a cold, shitty fridge

Alzheimer’s Domino Effect has a way to turn me off
But, you have a sexy way of turning me on
The relationships I had is not my favorite…
But, our laughter I adore so badly…it’s extremely exquisite

I'M Feeling It Chapter 1: Unneeded Greed

I feel numb beneath this skin…
This skin from deep within…
I’m thin and then…
I’m fat with loath again…
Greed I feed on
Envy and so on…
I’m a shining sun…
A dusked dawn…
I don’t feel pity
I know I look shitty
I might look funny…
Expressions lost due to exposure of shame and calamity
Let the crowd feed the fire
I silently scream aloud in my desire
In the recesses of my brain,
I see you catch the I-Don’t-Care train
Fine, just leave…
I’ll sit here and grieve
But, I will man up to what I believe – 
You will reap what you sow
God’s wisdom was hard to receive,
But, I’m not hard of hearing 
I find His word endearing 
To my eager ears…
That want to hear more…
When more was nothing more than a whisper away 
It’s like the night, taking a bow to yesterday
What was I waiting for?
Impatience had been in my blood for so long
Patience was like re-learning a song
From childhood…
But, I’m good…
Maybe a tad misunderstood…
But I’m a good blood…a stick in the mud or a splinter on a wood
Let the trees and the breeze entwine in my ears of tears and fears
Let them feed on what’s left of me
Like a hippo in the water, swimming in the lake of Lonely
Greek and Roman mythology ate me up like a brownie in the hand of a child
Reborn and born in this moral world…
Immortal in the Holy Spirit…
Truly, sincerely, and in all kindliness…
I’m still reduced to this belittling distress

Premium Member It's Only a Word

Shitty is such a cute little word
I chuckle each time I hear it
Even words like crappy or poopy
Really don't even come near it

Shitty is such a silly expression
Who was first to utter this phrase
Some poor soul who ws really ticked
Or a dude describing his malaise

Shitty can turn conversations to fun
Serious things take on a new light
When someone utters "that was shitty"
To describe an unpleasant night

Shitty's not used by sophisticated folks
They find it vulgar and naughty
If one of their kids utters that word
They're punished and end up all snotty

Shitty is such a humorous word
Can't help chuckling when I peruse it
But after giving it much consideration
This ain't the best place to use it!

Her Slashed Facade

She gazed into their eyes. The people she has loved all her life, blinded by a facade of people that surround everyone. 

The girl she danced with to their favorite songs and held as she went through pain. The friends which whom she gossiped with from shitty teachers to teenage boys. The friends she had shown her true face to, beyond her mask. 

Behind which remained a fragile girl whose heart ached so painfully she had once wished to end it. Yet once they knew she stilled remained alone. No, are you ok? No warm comforting hugs. No words of comfort given to her.

The things she had given these people when they needed it. When she fell apart they didn't seem to care. Too busy in their own worlds. So she kept talking about boys, they distracted her from herself. She kept singing along to the songs and her nails changed colors. But she was new, quiet, yet no one gave her a second glance.

And she awaited the day she could escape their oblivion. Their jabs she saved in memory. The invisible stabs that lay deep within. The bruises upon her lungs and the scabs upon her mind. The things that people gave to her and she kept. While she gave them the warmth they deserved and she was returned with icy winters and heartless smiles. The flawless facades of people everywhere.

Then she disappears. Without a trace. The people miss her for a while, they lost their warmth. Yet they move on, new facades of people to meet. New masks to try on, and new costumes to wear. 

Awhile she bought bandages, stitches, and casts. Fixed herself right up to whom she was truly meant to be. The facade long gone along with bruises, scans, and stabs. Left behind was the naked personality of a girl once broken become anew.

When she return she visited all of them. She blew tornadoes upon them, and cried hurricanes. She stomped earthquakes, and shouted words so icy she caused blizzards. When the people tried to recover they asked her why she had become this way.

She merely said,

"If it weren't for me, you would become I."

Addictions

Sleepless as the monsters that haunt me so…
Save me, I’m failing greatly and let the wicked wind blow
Fair enough as it is, I let you savor the moment
Demented lickers of fire desires…conjuring the times of lament
Behave, Dave…
Save…save…save…
My dreams of being a singer
My dreams of being a model
My dreams, my visions, breaking by the seams, my missions
Struggling to meet my beginning
The addictions of **** is winning
Okay, I admit it…I love watching the scenes of insanity
I feel rather shitty…holding my breath under water
Drown me the will to fly without the wings of flight
Tonight is the night…the will to fight with my undying might
Was all a lie from the start?
Discard me…Xo Xo Xo…was my lovely art
Mountains and valleys come together to mack
I was addicted to your drugs…holding my nut sack
Mountains to mountains
Valleys to valleys
Childhood was messed up…
Don’t cry over me…don’t cry over me…
I thought I was gay…I learned to hate me…
But, I’m straight…I love me…I love me…
Infections and addictions lick thee…
My plea is please…God…I love yoooo…
But I looked up **** just out of the bloooo
Tuff times…the clicking of dimes…
I collapse into 2 oceans of commotions and emotions
Kiss me the weirdness…
Kiss me the abstract abyss…
I’m tired and sick of losing tuch of yoo, God…
Touch me, your love should touch me…
My heart is weak
My soul is bleak
Hearing Speeeeeeeds of sounds…. Pulling Weeeeeeds from delightless grounds….
Subside from my side
Subside from my side
Devils and angels of thousands marry me merrily
Battlin’ these freedoms of speech…
Your Love Is What I Beseech…
But, I’m breaking apart by the second
Don’t backstab me…be with me…flee with me…you and I are one tree
