You don't know me...

You don't know me...

A Poem by Jazmine T

Honestly, I don’t care

If you have tripped the light fantastic

Filled your corners with spiritual healing

Washed your grubby fingers in the well of good intentions

Drank a litre of the good stuff

And eaten until your belly swelled

Driven the weak to distraction

Saved the little girl with the pink balloon

Prayed in the temple of every living god

And couple of dead ones too

Meditated with icons

Medicated with serial killers

Kissed the holy skirt of a travelling mystic

Learnt from the masters of the nine galaxies

Lived for eternity and died a million deaths

You don’t know me.

This packs a punch; the listing is absolutely fantastic. ("Washed your grubby fingers..." is my favorite.) I wish something fancier had happened at the end - perhaps a line break of some kind, or apostrophe?

Meditated with icons
Medicated with serial killers

The laundry list from hell.
A great, big mystic f**k you to any pound fisted, a*s licker that has ever uttered the phrase "you're all the same."

This said to me..No matter how far you go..you're still a giant shite.

Well done Jazzy T,
Now let's swill some Earl Grey

I have never kissed the the holy mini skirt of the traveling mystic...but I might want to...lol. Great point here we tend to take our experiences and put them in a jello mold and call them a meal and think that we have it all figured out. As much as there are similarities between people, its the diferences that make them unique. Nice stuff.

a unique magikal foray into the deeper layers of character so intimate no other could ever ever penetrate no matter how much they'd like to delude themselves that they have found the pigeonhole into which to cram yet another soul~ bravo!
