B.S. (Be Sure)

Fed up, put out, done, finale.

In the mist of morning adherence,

I am beyond all clearance.

Forget the path that was...

the fork,

the knife,

the spoon...

My love has died.

Your mother lied.

I am my only truth,

the realism inside my youth,

F**k you then was a joke,

it's become my only hope.

All the cards have played, playa,

now what for you se'as

In so deep, in truth the sleep,

as gratitude and thanks are steep,

and this quagmire's too quick & deep.

Conquistador sixteen,

drop two, I am you,

never fail to turn,

into what you desire,

or suffer the consequences;

a fool.

Zero begins...

Zero Ends...

Astrophysics turns into

Quantum engines.

I want to know, Don't you?

forget me not a pettle tossed

forgotten not, holocaust, and most definitely lost...

to those who knew,

Batman and Robin will come through.

Give to me the cupcake of your most precious memories and I will step on it and make it dirt;

ground like coffee that you drink each day to stay awake.

Why must we play falsehoods way?

In, out. Around, about.

Real, lost... who cares and more importantly,

who determines the cost?

Of ____ LIFE??

My life is... _____

You fill in the blank with importance and honesty,

and then come to me with nothing.

Author's Note

off the cuff, as always... leave me something, don't, I really don't give a flying fuck.

Todd, Wow what has you so bitter? I haven't done reviews in a long while due to my wife's health battles then I come to find this? Your writing, as usual, is tremendous but I don't believe I've ever read this tone in your previous writes. I certainly hope all is well with you and this was just some blowing off of necessary steam. If I can help you at all message me, OK? take care...dan

At the time of this write I was extremely upset and angry because after several years of trying to do the right thing I was crushed to learn that nothing had changed and I would remain estranged from my first and only son. He is six now and the last time we could just be father and son he was three. I had no idea, at the time of this write, of the deep depression that would follow and the darkness I would feel and consequently write.

Very nice use of words. I had to read twice. Left the reader with a lot to think about. I did enjoy the thoughts.
