Inspiration is just pouring out lately which is exciting...It was weird, I was stepping out of the shower, looking in the mirror with my towel and suddenly had a look on my face that was the title of the next poem. So I bottled up that look, the towel draping spectacle and threw it together on the next page of my fairy tale sketchbook story.
Thank you to the uni-ball, Sharpie permanent pen and highlighter...and of course...cherry stain.
Another tag team creation with my good friend Shane.
KNOWING
The uncertainty twists like a scoliolitic spine
Living, breathing, steps in time
Add six more pieces to this degenerate shrine
Just two words and I know you’re mine
Heard too long with a forked tongue
Dreamed it all up from where I’ve come
Know now how the damage was done
Awakened from ashes, a phoenix, a rising sun
Stumbling rhetoric and nursery rhymes
Burning catatonia in a writhing mind
So long a sentence for such little a crime
Like all best lessons, learned in time
