Consider Yourself Lucky

Contributed by Jyssvw on Friday, 31st August 2007 @ 07:59:17 AM in AEST
Topic: oops

When it becomes a thing of the past
and plays with your head no more

When it sleeps with the dead
and waits for the dirt
as the moisture gathers on the slippery floor

Puddles of blood reflect
the likeness of the self in retrospect
where nothing is as it was once before

Take for instance,
a new existence-

Knowing it is only you I adore

Effortless was the push
towards the concluding collapse
the instinctual was eventually detached-
from practiced witchcraft
soaking rays in a devils sun bath
burned beyond the beaten path

Suds of soap
sins of skin ritualistically absolved
those enduring the eternal wrath
are all the souls methodically involved

In high demand
once were these pure grains of sand
the precious few secrets left to man
the burning of the condemned, and
hanging of the dammed
the taming of the fertile land
led to the cultivation of the dirt

In the hopes of rain
I must abstain
my privacy considered public domain and worse

Continuity refrains
from making an entrance into the game
where hurt is all but assured

Powerful problems
no conceived solution
contrived delusions
perforated contusions
under the skin
blood and water combine in precision
A surgical incision
into the bone of perennial wisdom
the heart of the kingdom
apart from social reason
instead of evolving, believing
concede to simply living

Afraid
Awake
Never sleeping

Playtime for adults
away time from the smoldering ropes
a straight mind
no need for an overdose
avoiding cigarette smoke
the correct time
drawn in parallel lines
intercross
then become lost
peppered then salt
its nobodys fault
everyone eventually gets caught
in deceptive nets of rubber cloth

A few more hours
are paid for and bought

A thought

A reason to hope
