I don't write poetry, but even if I did I'd be wary of posting it for fear it would be immediately outshone by all the great stuff on here. I stick to small, slightly humorous scenes and often cheesy/sometimes melodramatic monologues.
And he used to make me pray, wearing a mask like a death's head. When he put me there in the back seat, and he said, "Jesus save me, Jesus save me."
An act of bravery, one smile spurned. To be met by a look of distain and I go again. Losing my sanity for you alone. Cold empty seat the next day because he is not you. I am up for trial in the prettiest dress I could find to impress you, but I am damn if I do and damned if I don't so let me drown already. I want to celebrate your apparition, day after day, what good fortune brought him here To meet my shaken smile? All I know is I am unworthy. Off flies my imagination again, trying to mold a likeness I can obtain.

If I were to allow myself time to fall to you for one night as my heart wants, what feelings might it invoke? Be careful with the power of a single fingers stroke. Powerful, masterful, graceful interupted gait. Passive brow, my heart is a flutter. Who are you? I don't know anymore.

Heard you run your horses out on my porch and thought, here's Tazan for his Jane. My love of the most outrageous claims. I have loved and let go of my imaginary prince with child northern man playing lights on wall my heart is miles away running lights on my skin at night I have to fight with my own mind to silence the endless chatter. Sweet man who keeps a home and tells me pretty things, don't give up on us just yet.
Nope can't do it, I should really learn to work on these things but the are very, of the moment.

A poem I wrote today when I saw that my ex was gloomy that it had been a year and a half since we stopped talking. I don't mean to be immodest, but I like it. Also, Joanna quote at the beginning.
With Kind Affection By Proxy
And it's my heart, not me, who cannot drive, at which conclusion you arrived, watching me sit here, bolt upright, and cry for no good reason at the Eastering sky
When I spied in the sand a sea-spat carafe and, unstopping it, peered down its neck, as I, a tasseomancer, read the dregs, I wondered, Dare I suppose this meant for me?
Paper aeroplanes across the sea bear crossword clues like prayers, whispered into the briny air that somebody might hear: anyone at all, we would say, in denial of our accuracy.
I wondered if I had the right to split a yarrow and skiff the stalks that another might hunch and read them; but who else would care to divine of the reeds an oracle meant for your relief? Is it cowardice or a tender heart that yarrow-boats bear on the Erse?
Remember, though, I tell myself, the sores upon your wrists: let three years' toil without reward be spared you by the haary mist that slows the passage of these words. Though painful still, to reminisce is easier than day by day to repeat events in parody.
So here, I think, and to each reed consign my thoughts to be received:
Affection's made of sterner stuff than time can make to fade. Should this small, gold-wrought promise glitter still despite the waves that parted us and washed ashore the splitting of our fates, then, dear reader, I will smile to recall our halcyon days.
And were it up to me to make the forecast's lulling prophesies, a year now past, to fishermen a soothing voice would say, "Sail away, sail away beyond the Mull of Galloway; sail as far as Dublin Bay. I shall not speak of German Bight, nor Lundy, Fastnet, Thames or Wight. Neptune lies with Amphitrite and shall not hinder you tonight."
Alas, my dear - for still you are my darling - 'twas not so. Though seas between us braid hae roar'd, still we pu'd the gowans fine, so please, my ever-more-than-friend, think fondly of our auld lang syne.
I wish I could write stuff like you guys, I always run out of steam.
I am sick from searching, for you eyes in every face. Fishing, or out at sea, to no avail. on a quest to make things better, I only make things so much worse. I am cursed. Wouldn't give up everything, inspite of this desperate situation, I owe him my life.. And my love.
Doh, really hard to type on a boat! That is no excuse

We studied literature and poetry in class, so one day our homework was to write a poem. It was really hard to write with no inspiration in my second language. We studied three literary period in class (Swedish enlightenment-carl micheal bellman, Romantic- stagnelius, and realism- rydberg). We also read a modern poem by Nobel prize winner Lagerkvist. Most of my class emulated these writers, and I just wrote a poem in my usual decadent style. So yeah. Enjoy.
Smak.
Mitt hud ar blå när jag sover is solsken. Mitt hår växer blommor och jag ser på ingenting.
Det smakar som stoft. Och vallmor nicka i sturska vinden. Gamar flyger över din glansig lik. Månen är rod i rymden ikväll.
Stjärnor kollar på min sjuklig kropp. jag äter min naglar, jag äter din lår. Du smakar som och rädslan. och jag ar nöjd med min afton.
Translation.
Taste. My skin is blue when I sleep in the sunshine. My hair grows flowers and I see nothing.
It tastes like dust. And poppies nod in the insolent wind. Vultures are flying over your shiny corpse. the moon is red in space tonight.
Stars keep watch over my morbid body. I eat my nails, I'll eat your thigh. You taste like sugar and fear. And I am satisfied with my evening.
Of course, I have one aim, the grotesque. If I am not grotesque I am nothing.
When the next guy gets this house He will say to himself (forever saying to ourselves) What the fuck was this guy thinking! Hey buddy i worked very hard at Letting this backyard go, so that The mice and birds and squirrels In this hood of a place, could have A safe home.See those piles of uncut wood? A storm came through years back. Took down trees all over this neighborhood Me and the mice and our wood stove Needed them, so we all got in my truck and drove the alleys in search of safety. Frogs need places like this to survive and by cracky welcome to it If the Class warfare riots don't burn it all down...and some guy still gets it. See that cherry tree? The one with the guy wires holding it off the power lines? No place is as safe as this backyard.

The thing i like best about deciphering Joanna's songs...i'm always wrong.
Shock sliding, losing my feet fall on my seat everytime! Fall over myself to make you happy with no respect for the future. I feel you here and now and that is all that can matter to me. Tear myself away at the end, cut myself off emotionally to do the bussiness.
