Note To SelfA Poem by drea
Note to self:
In the novel you're on the wrong page. You leaned over, drooled threw the towel in on the day. Lunacy age the counting of time is for the painfully sane. So tear the page stalk-creep out and away. Reverb driveway. Cars came and went. My parents: petal to the metal racing to complete the same day since 1988. Crash bang! I've made head-way but never learned to keep the racket at bay. My guts imitate the rubber friction rumble on the highway. My vision blurs faster than the tire rims I don't believe this to be safe. Cocaine some head west to cut out the headache we've been spinning wheels up and out of personal rain. Onto the parkway throwing up quarters and dimes hoping to catch a quick glint of sunshine. reflect back down to the human plane. Shark bait A hot a*s A halo A willingness that only comes with the stiff belief that progress will be attained. New day No personal rain just the clouds in the sky the hair in the drain. coal train jars my head every hour writing the same tune, riding passengers are the same stray's the weeks held promise then resorted to the same days. Drool Sleep lack of control personal history taking the shape of a black hole degenerate hours and lips sewn tight with nothing with emptiness, purpose is deranged I see my own growth developing as an elliptical rage Nailing the performance down on a crude stage, just like before it will be nothing less than ok.
