I Exist

I Exist

 

 

 

as an erection ready to burst

 

inside the sweat of my hand let the reader understand

 

through towers that enncompass a rich epitaph

 

my soul permeates a lasting faith

 

through borrowed pews with the latest news

 

the kotex lying on the floor lest I implore

 

a call for awe so much more but what

 

working too hard can give you a heart attack

 

why do we equate logic for fear

 

branded ivy briars blemished in the exterior of a flood

 

we tend to sweep thing under the rug

 

a store bought pardon for the forgotten

 

have we forgotten Ben Laden

 

everyone has a voice but no one's using it

 

the exploits of a harnass in its textual plough

 

 

 

I exist through a flicker then no more

 

although the powers that be will sway

 

the taunt of the nightingale puts a smile on my face

 

yet soon to be erased by the mere notion of sadness

 

marked on a blotted page yet clearly intact

 

cheap thrills popping pills & heroin on the street

 

with ellusive brigade of a fantasy swirling through my brain

 

snap sot moments on the past with a hope that it would last

 

no one in this life gets by on any frees pass

 

I exist in the morning after a night with burgers and frys

 

through the ceiling beams a light of trivial pursuit

 

with the notion of a faint whisper in the midnight hour

 

 

 

perhaps I was here before the world began

 

with soft pillows to prompt my head to give it a sense of solace

 

to soar to heights unknown

 

in lucid dreams with midnight screams

 

a knock on the door lest I implore something more

 

the hospitible decor with colors of white, green & red

 

what is going on inside my head

 

sidewalk zombies with a thirst for blood

 

a cow chewing on its tender cud

 

you spoke to me in the tender moments in a dream

 

lines being formed in a vast stretch of the imagination

 

perhaps now is a good time to take a rest on a long awaited vacation

 

 

 

I exist through the climax of two lovers in passionate sex

 

the marble decorum for a thirst for more pleasure

 

to rest in the basking in the vast expanse between space & time

 

through wandering hours when faces do shine

 

faces in the window with storms in the night

 

I exist to never give up on the fight
