disappearing ink

look into the ink well

see me stroke my pen

small cursive then

can you see me?

writing right them
those words in front of you

three little words

my neglect you say
it must cause me to be that way
to confuse and use an ink that will disappear

before I fade
into a shell of hells
all those other lost souls

unfilled, obscure
no longer able
to think

unused and
unnoticed, diminished

like my own tears.
my disappearing ink

Nice thoughts from this..the

Nice thoughts from this..the poet's pen like the bearer of all pages skipped, and unread, uncried tears, and whispers never said. 

All we are is dust in the wind.

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

Reminds me of that awkward moment before bed when you think and analyze everything that happened, however irreleveant, throughout the day... been there

I think I know what you mean

the moments of minutuea, those finer points, are they really significanct? The real difference between something or nothing, I guess it all matters... or nothing matters at all...I try not to think... I HURTS MY MY HEAD... I lead a formally mundane life, go to the job to get stuff to survive, the relationships to feel stuff and survive, the real stuff in my poetry that gives me a reason to keep going and do more than merely survive...

I try not to think, thinking just pisses me off sometimes, alot of times, most of the time... I do appreciate your insight. You are a tlalented writer stay true to your art,

Peace

i do all my work

after midnight and it surely doesn't include writing poetry...

it is as  close to purgatory as I think a place can be

a cross  between an insane ayslum and willie wonkas chocolate factory

 

seeking peace
