Polyurithane


I see it seems I say and mean

don't stay the same in changing meat, 

fear the plainest plasticity and seal this stain in my mainframe

po-ly-ur-i-thane

me

pain, they smile because they can't see

the hurricane, 

rain ominous

what is this

but what is your

tragedy

why do you

lie to me

boy?

I am the tragedy 

but what is a masterpiece

without atleast 

one mistake?

I stand up in the rain again

where the wet lament finds

cold cement in shame 

it's friend-

ain't me

co-in-ci-denc-es

all the time they seem

dis-soc-i-a-ting 

me

grey,

the ground and sky are all the same,

and only I stand between

these two rigid identical infinities
