Failed
I tried to write poetry today,
- failed miserably -
tried to ressemble the tangled democracy,
place the puzzle pieces into some stage
of recognizable melody.
Failed.
I hear the sweet tinkling, the gems of eyes
- bruised blue -
crusted with diamonds, sluggish glances
remind me so much
yet not enough.
- give it time -
Just kidding -
I think I've got this thing under control.
I'm desperately pleading for hope,
in any case.
This fucking ragged mess,
tangled threads,
this muddy mess of wishes -
well, we'd all be rich.
I think I'm failing.
I think that's acceptable.
