Poems of the Rill.

I'm sedated,

Tired,

My eyes are slumped.

...I'm sedated, my heart is tucked.

And you're welcome.

I was a problem earlier.

I was a lion.

I was Red;

I threw hands with my bag,

Skinned my knuckles for an hour.

And the Lion has been shot,

I'm sedated; tired; out.

The man-beast has been tranqed.

The problem is sleeping;

His Pride tucked in his waistband.

Let's keep it such a way.

S,17,23.

Slept so good,

Somber

Soft as baby dreams,

Perfections within imaginative

Bedrooms - Beds of down

Goosedawn

cradles me to sleep.

Perfect

Little

Perfections ,

Today will be

Wonder .

Full of it, I swear.

S,20, 23.

Not hard to apologize. Just apologize.

...You raised your hand to hit me,

And you did,

Then you punched me.

I asked for you

To Just

Say

Sorry…

You didn't.

You were angry.

How do you think I feel?

Feels like I'm trying too hard,

Feels like you aren't trying at all.

Feelings like you feel right,

Feel like I'm wrong, I'm always wrong.

I'm always apologizing,

You're always angry,

I'm always depressed,

Yet

Yet- you don't want to hear about it,

I'll listen to you, I'll listen

To the same shit,

Your same anger,

Over nearly nothings, nearly nothings -

And here I am,

Only this time

I'm

Not listening -

I am the issue.

And you hit me with two blows,

The pain they caused is irrelevant,

What isn't,

Is

The lack of apology.

It was so unnecessary.

That's what hurt darling -

What hurt was

How

...little

You managed to care.

How little. I am.

So little. I am…

S, 21, 23.

You people don't care whats going on

In side m y he ad ,

Doesnt matter anyway.

im watching the fish

The bubbles splash of the purifier.

S, 20, 23.

Bugs tickle my mind,

Earthworms scream songs of silence,

Speak thy voice,

Mind O' trembling,

Trombone pumps out a tune of classic America,

Here we come to rest.

Come to rest at last.

S, 25, 23.

What has my life come to?

I race there for pussy,

Middle of the morning,

Rain comes down pour,

I fail to succeed

3 times her climax,

I am dead inside

As I shower in hers,

Wash away stink,

Wash away disgust

What has my life come to?

What is this all for?

.Cucumber Watermelon Soap.

I walk to school

Mid-rain

Questioning my life decisions

My poor life decisions…

I rush tears of failed sobriety

S, 27, 23.

I REm.mber

Days of the old.

Days of ancient Youth.

Ancient antique - antiquity.

Now I'm always scared,

Or always cared,

Now I'm neither -

i remember running that play,

breaking my arm,

I didn't cry - cursed like a sailor though.

i remember when

it would rain and

i'd be so excited.

I remember when I saw

The lightning

And being joyous

Like the kid- the kid

i was .

i remember being so

Excited

For that first home .

Hippopotamus dreams

rhinoceros ‘nightmares.

Knuckles, titanium;

Mind clogged with sawdust; industrial campaigns.

Forgetfulness-like-Envy .

Tobacco

NAuseous swamps of lie lie lie.

Angst tickles organs like the harpist.

Fear like smoke climbs from the organ pipes.

The play ceases *

There was hibiscus; hibiscus no longer.

Hibiscus no longer …

Bury me with them; the earthworms.

Your torturous boredom is comedic to me.

No need to upset you.

To my self.

The world annoys me so -

Annoys me more

Than truly anything

Can do to me.

Fuck it all. Let it burn.
