Détente

A Poem by Davidgeo
"

I declare it

"

the happiest hand to mouth you ever saw

a dreamed ecstasy awake right next to me

all around me it's much more than just air

this so freely given because of so little saving

mystical and unable; delightfully arrogant

holding back the spirits of nothing by dissolving

a rhythm into everything without an ownership

the emptiest coffer a rich man could ever have

there is no afraid for you, just impossible linguistic gymnastics

rationalizing some spectrum between some kind of alive and the dead

so i grew you a giving tree and it required no self defense

tangible and able; supra loyalty and justly treacherous

this existence is a war without defenders without fighters

a shuffling i pod full of motivation

the happiest hand to mouth you ever saw

a dreamed ecstasy awake right next to me

i can only show you - that you're an idiot

saving for a fall no one's ever survived at all

not once; not even in fanatical lunacy

tangible and able; delightfully upset

there is only nothing, the spirit of negation

from everything - the happiest hand to mouth you ever saw

we bury nothing but bodies

there is no mind to save

enjoy the time you have
