Lon





          A man with big dreams 
          Child born into slavery 
          With scissors in hand 
          I clipped to a better life 
          I am Alonzo Herndon

Something sad

It hasn't rained for a long time,
I am in a desert. 
Prisoner of my own mind,  
In the unknown,
Searching for loneliness, 
When you live with the idea that 
suffering is a feeling 
You try to go there 
To feel alive.

Lon

wanting to 
i did to you
my own
makeup
to make
you

forget my
face as it is 
just a mask
a persona
that can be
erased

like a clown's
upside down
smile doesn't
mean he or she
is unhappy
underneath

so feeling like
the phantom
i operatically
chained you
with not seen
changes ever

before for
you are are
you not
Isabella
and i not
your Quasi
