waiting
Poem poem come to me
Fill me mediocracy
Open my eyes and fill me half
For i have just an empty glass
Held here right, In my hand left
Griped on so tight it changes clef
Down to base, Tiptoe on the floor
All cows eat grass but my glass is no more
Poem poem come to me
Fill me with the desire to be
Satisfied, romanticized
To end my bore i fantasize
Tick clock the mouse froze still
Waiting and wishing on a will
A will to go on, to strike hour one
But noise filled time and won
Never quiet
Never loud
Never lonely
Never crowd
I miss aloneness
And the desperate stillness
Overwhelming love
Imploding down above
Becomes too much
Of what i always wanted
An excess of happiness
Makes this house haunted
Restless, Longing rest
But never wanting to break
In the fear of breaking
What i can never make
Poem poem come to me
In a flash and set me free
Imagine my imagination
When you fill it with creation
Leave no cell unpainted
As I daydream untainted
Filling time with emptiness
Waiting waiting on cleverness
One last stretch
Until the next
look up down to the ground
one last final time around
Round the clock
till all is stopped
When the next waiting win
Can begin.
