Disordered TrainA Poem by R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)A poem on mental illnessWhen I removed their masks, I didn’t want to see their faces I don’t want to do this anymore, the allegory of tomorrow is melancholy sorrow metaphorically, says the fists of mystery to its mistress, fed, ready to settle into a bed of flowers, into a coffin of gravel A dominion of sin I’m living in, give into the pleasure at your leisure, pathetic evil, painted real On death’s row a light show, in the darkness there is a cold home, bottomless hopeless, sodomized oceans I don’t deserve to die anymore than you deserve to live Slither in our grave, a shade in the ground of a burial mound, a dig site crown on disparities hounds, a soul unbound by the chains of hell, a rain fell down that erased all sound I’m an able raincloud, always available Waiting for inevitable obliteration I don’t write throughout my life, writing is my life Clouds are evil in the sky, a watchful eye It’s not too late to create hatred, precipitation Pronated earthquake acquainted proclamation Poseidon’s item Hell is a hand me down, I inherit my meritless mistress, a whisper of the figureless, bigoted, egoless I don’t want to hand myself to someone else, I’d rather hang myself from the top bunk with a belt, drowning in the clouds, food for the hounds, soundlessly unprofound, until I’m no longer around Gather round the devil in the sky There is no grace for the faceless, it’s too late Consume hate, a new day, ask away, fade to grey, eating misery, pleading victim feed, nutrition vicious vitamin C, a happy family Eye of romanticized beings, see through me, the devil looming, look at my face, the dirt in your coffin profit grave Premonitions prolific in the Bishop’s arithmetic Arms wide to hug another suicide Stuttering a coward Maimed until we’re slain War cries, tears salty blue Victimized politicized, what is left to do? Debilitate and recreate the hatred of my youth Join up or suck up Get shook up, fucked up It’s not like we burnt out, the ashes and coal continue to burn, we were not set on fire, we merely continued burning It’s a constant uphill battle, there is no mountain summit, only poems of skyward stone Morsels celebrate before being put out for garbage day Between the station waves, I feel like I’m on tv Subtle stuttering is mothering a runaway, confiscating, fluttering bubbling, unsung orchestrated, carpal tunnel on the runway emancipate the unsacred, and prepare for lift off into heaven’s five highway fly by 911 airways You decided who I was without looking, why should I care about you Read between the lines before you find me guilty, trust seems to be a frailty If you ever ask, I’m already gone I practice pacifism in this cataclysm The only thing worth doing is poetry I cannot conquer my mitochondria It’s not just my wants that you’ve halted so I shouldn’t be complaining But you don’t have to take everything I have and hold it over like a trophy They played until stalemate, check beckons, time to be the spawn of a pawn reckoning, in the house of the king's effigy I cannot control my pain and anger, a weapon in me made to bleed gravy in the home of hades, maybe if I could express myself, write the blood pipes down nice, I could be rid of it all, and revel unapologetically, in peaceful calm, ignorance I want to write black over the whitest clovers, but when I can’t process a thought over, how can I automatize words? If I can’t think right, I cannot be heard Cut me a portion of fortune with portly motives, and poetry overflowing Everlasting in our blasphemy Welcome aboard to the disordered train of high octane schizophrenia chasing ya through the membrane of a life-chain Take your seat with briefcase laced insanity, and traverse the planets of madness, gathering the scattered memories, and bury them in a cemetery © 2019 R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)Author's Note
