Breakfast time
The stale flecks of pre-dawn hope
Rinced acid clean by morning glare
Like remnant cornflakes

Perhaps love does really exist, but the beings we are surrounded by don't know how
Perhaps there is no such thing as soulmates, but if you're blessed with loving someone who respects you back, you should stick with 'em
Perhaps the tides come in and then receed to show us what, if anything, will be left behind after some turbulence

Marlboro men
cough a lot
have mean squinty little eyes
and haunted expressions
that come from
throat cancer
three day stubble
emphysema
and the knowledge
of how damned
hard it is
to look
suave and sophisticated
with an
oxygen tank

The Colossus stands as a regal glimpse
to that which may be rightly cast away.
And though we shudder to think
what fortunes may arise
on the brink of convergence
on the final, unknown day,
the Colossus stands as it has, always.
Cast off and built again,

I met a little girl today...she packed her bags and try to run away...you see her mom was a junkie and her dad was a rapist and all she wanted was to try and exscape it...she felt like she was in a world of her own...she ain't have a friend or a place to call home...so she looked to the lord for some answers...and he said "don't worry I'm gonna cure ya cancer".....so she finally gets away from all the drugs,rape&cancer and realized that god finally gave her answers...so if you ever feel like you life is bad...think back to this poem and realize the life she had
Languid smells from bronzen pots
were dun and thicked the air.
old tides in a bitter swing,
to sway along this dance
