DOUBTLESSLY BESIEGED

Folder: 
JOURNAL#17

should such marked madness in me

ever escape

I feel I would lose my cornered edge

my sharp yet quixotic self

too often now mocks me

as I slowly begin to dredge up

past imperfects

all the while throwing

quite famously

tantrums of muted woe

such contradiction by way of

belated and misplaced outrage

makes me want to throw up

all my over fed wit

in a humbled fit

I am at best

'Doubtlessly Besieged'...........
