    Unkept Sultry (Some Language) (Moved)

    My own reading: unkept sultry - YouTube

    And down I sit indifferent what a shame but
    Cut-up post-it notes slathered droopily by spit to block
    Time
    Lonely windows staring through bars into bigger windows
    With no bars
    But what’s the difference
    My hand wishing for technology too ancient to make me
    Frustrated
    Lonely ambitions of fame when I don’t even
    Like People
    Love, Sex, Rock, and Feces
    Nobody can do it
    Maybe
    Boxing out silently on deathless keyboards the sounds
    Of academes and malignant inextricableness
    And ardor
    Maybe
    Maybe the year of our lord brings nothing
    Sell out die old live trapped play games
    Never
    But then should I sit outside in a box in the chilling slap of winter
    Writing gold?
    Sit outside and look up and wish to look down from that tinted visage
    Of that tall box of mazelike repetition
    Only to wish to look down and hope to see yourself looking up
    Sloppy water bottle bongs littering under your feet and grandiose
    Books
    Under your writing
    What am I trying to do?
    What are you trying to do?
    Is it for me you them her him it
    Him?
    Is it for you?
    Why should I be corrected when I am right?
    Should I ask so many questions?
    Waiting for summer to end so it starts again in a year
    Twelve angry parents
    Looking down laughing
    Lies Lies and Manners
    Ignoring everything listening to everything teaching all
    To your sperm
    Grown up like you
    And now you wish they hadn’t
    Maybe
    And selling papers on the street for large lumps
    Of self-conscience
    Never too good but never really tried
    Maybe
    Wish to set examples
    But for all the good it did to Him
    I don’t think so
    All of them are dead beat trodden and always hungry
    Premonitions of a vegetable getting a
    Stipend
    For a striptease
    A vision of photon beats playing in loop over and under
    Until eyes bleed over white and ears
    Shut
    And all that’s left is wishful thinking
    What will he do what will she do well what can I do
    Nothing
    Maybe
    Should the bars go?
    Should they go and make the windows unsafe for human consumption
    Should they tear and bawl and let me fly
    Gravity being a bitch and all
    Should I land with a terrific gong splat
    Making my new clothes rip
    With the sweat of twenty at work for something
    I will never do or want to
    Maybe
    Should I go towards the other end of the tunnel
    For fear that I’ll just end up sitting indifferent with shame on my face?
    Maybe

    I'm not sure what it means, a journal? I like these lines:
    1. Lonely windows staring through bars into bigger windows/With no bars/But what’s the difference
    2. Books/Under your writing
    3. Premonitions of a vegetable getting a/Stipend/For a striptease (I REALLY like this one. Do I dare ask what it means?)

    I love the poem, I love the reading; you have a beautiful voice, very clear. It has enough image to keep readers wanting to get to know it.
