Working through Sleep.
One night, I couldn't sleep, I was in and out of it for awhile, so I wrote this, I wish you could see the scribbles as my hand and head would fall asleep while writting this. Some of it I had to change just because you could tell there was two Ideas in there.
I really wanted to write poetry that day and couldn't come up with much so I think thats what my subconscious desire here was.
Here we go.
Through blunt smoke and tears, and
that inexplicable fear, -poetry comes out. Unsure why
I am denying myself from her pleasures
I only really want her to be right here.
After long nights and cold beers,
hopefully I won't smear on this white blank page before me.
I only want to come out from that
place deep within, I can feel my bones begin to cringe
at that deep numbing desire to have you near.
The fountain lost it's head,
I wish I can only see what others see,
hear what they hear, think how they think.
My head wont lie down.
