Holiest of Holy's

I'm tired of talking 

To people who have holes in them
And when I see what's missing
I make it a point to dodge it
Because I don't have the patience
To fix it,
My voice feels empty 
And my feet weary
Pounding streets till they bleed
And the people are holy entities 
Devoid of courtesy 
When they stare laser gazes 
At my face unphased,
My tongue whips my teeth
And jaws into forming Incomplete thought 
But by the time I'm done talking 
You've already bought the bullshit
Because we're empty you see
And we want to believe in something
Besides the news reports 
That autism consorts with terrorism 
Or my store bought food 
Is slowly choking my insides,
So believe what you want 
Because another spoon full 
Isn't as dangerous as a 
Closed minded attitude 
And a face without memory 
Is a stranger seeing through your holiest of Holy's 
Disapproving at the person you are
But I'm here to say that I love you,
Your destruction is unique
And all the mistakes are 
What made you 
So when you're alone at night
And you think the world is killing you
Just know that I love the mess you made
because it just might save you,
To be honest I'm awful too
And screw up more 
Than a vertical prostitute,
I have scars I get lost in 
But in those holes Im found

Hey Tennessee

A fine piece of artwork here. I concur and feel the same way about people with holes in them, including me - yeah I mess up far too many times - gotta go. Time to screw up something or someone somewhere :D nice poem, I am Wholly Hole(y) but repairable. ~Stella
