from the perspective of an poet caught up in the branches of their own philosophy
- Untitled
Sulfur lights the damp blue sky
these cities are not made for you
they are buildings for the unfed
life for the poorly led
and a shelter to those not here
we cry for the ones not here
a small and lonely shadow
cast by those who climb
on unending towers
torn and shattered,
for rain has finally fallen
on a cold and sobering reminder
that seasons change
- Poetry is
for the tired and weary
the words stretching thin
as to be transparent
a feeling
we whisper them
then and now to read
it is lonely
it does not give us rest
yet it is there
written with bleary eyes
in which no writing will give them sleep
is it to empty our minds
spill thoughts onto paper and silica
maybe
or it is just to read
a promise to the future
to take apart yourself
and smile at the things you never saw
- Untitled 2
no more of old happy endings
not because we can't die happy
or die old
but because of change
we will surely die differently
then we wanted in the beginning
In the beginning
we will cry
in the end
we should understand
