To Prove to You

To Prove to You

A Poem by Butch Decatoria

Hills of broken glass and nettle

i'd climb

of tiger claws & angry eyes

i'd fight

for you & your lyrical kiss

for each lonesome hour missed

i'd bite

all in the way

all in your path

i'd push

and face the aftermath

and take the fists

i would

decline a million

decline the indecent proposals

i could

kill your parents in their bed

i'd cry

until you believe

my love is true

i'd die

on that hill

of broken glass & nettle

i'd climb

higher & higher & higher

until we settle

on a kiss

our love on a wire...

the form is really interesting ; it's a little random in spots, but overall i flowed with it, and really thought it was quite a good piece!

"i'd die

on that hill

of broken glass & nettle"

love that... you have some great word choices here, and i loved the flow... i'll have to check out more of your work; i think i like your voice :)
