Clairvoyance

Recently, it had been the
Compounding desire for
Unmediated
Tradition.

It had been the
Crushing hope of
Not-quite
Beauty.

Soon, it will be the
Losing interests of the
Hopelessly
Shattered.

It will be the
Quiet means of ending
Internal
Turmoil.

Currently, it is the deep
Profound feeling of
Romantic
Melancholy.

It is the unexpected
Rise of hopes and
Unwanted
Pressures.

What are friends for?

Going Under

I thought that maybe
--just maybe--
if I learned to loathe
-- really hate--
then I'd know how to live
--seriously live--
but instead I've become ill
--honestly sick--
and malevelent where I once
--too long ago--
cared in spite of reason and hope
--alone and lost--

So now I drown myself
--too quickly--
in an ocean of strong words
--dark, cold words--
but the stars among the darkness
--resolute and discerning--
feeling the earthquake below
--tenderness cracking--
has left me on the shores
--among the sharp rocks--
for words cannot kill
--only injure--
