Stream of Incoherence

Stream of Incoherence

A Poem by DownTheDrain

The Holes in me sleeve
It's poetry no matter which way you look at it
Milk and Sprite and worn-out tendons
I haven't slept in hours
It's worse than I think it is
Scuzz
Caffeinated pills
Blackened Nailbeds
Guttural utterance
Similar to that of a cellphone
"Ain't got no how watchamacallit"
An apostrophe is not used to separate independent clauses or to divide
a series of longer phrases
Bluish fabric
Societal profiling is more flawed than most will ever comprehend
Pretense pervades my carpet.
I hate the damn thing.
I hate it so much.
Technicolor m**********r.

I really like what you're trying to say by almost not saying it. Had many nights like this, I'm afraid. One suggestion: social profiling instead of societal. Other than that, really sharp work. The last line is a definite bonus...

I personally don't understand this poem. Anyways this is an 18+ up writing.
