Dedication
In dedication to the world’s greatest poet.
Beside yours, my words are so austere
You’ve humored and encouraged me anyway
That’s just the person that you are
May the luminescence of your soul
Shine through what I’ve written here
And know, my dear friend,
No matter the time, nor the distance
I’ll carry you in my heart forever
May you find happiness in this world
Me, Myself, and I
Allow me to introduce you
To Me, Myself, and I
No, there aren’t really three of me
Just the product of my mind
Me, he’s the fun one
Wish I was him all the time
Full of burning passion
Chaotic energy with a lot of sass
Myself is who I really am
The one you typically see
Desiring to spread cheer to all
Biggest heart of the three
I naturally comes last
Where he feels he always is
Darkness in every corner
He can never, ever win
Now that I’ve introduced you all
Let’s go out on a little journey
Don’t worry, it isn’t far
In fact, we’re already there
Keeping these three in check
Is a major balancing act
All chomping at the bit
To get their time in the spotlight
Me is here for a few days
Myself a little bit more
I seems to last the longest
Time dilation at its finest
By now I hope it’s clear
And you don’t think I’m insane
They each contribute to who I am
The person on every page
Rubber Band
Pull it up
High as can be
Let it snap back down
See how fast it goes
From a peak
To a trough
In an instant?
Just as fast
It returns to the center
Like nothing ever
Happened
Begin the cycle again
Pull it up
High as can be
Let it snap back down
Except, wait…
It stops in the center
This time
Pull it down
Low as can go
Let it snap back up
Goes higher than ever
Lingers for a while
Then returns to
The center
Again
Pull both ends
High and low
Let it go
What’s going to happen?
Dances in place for a time
While falling to the floor
Mania
The possibility
Of impossibility
Is the fragility
Of my reality
Spice of Life
Can we stop to appreciate
The magic of the swear?
Adds some spice to any sentence
Replaces the droll with some flair
That day wasn’t just bad
It was absolutely ass
No dear, you’re not just beautiful
You’re bitch with a lot of class
Damned if we do, damned if we don’t
Say, “To Hell with it all!”
That shit was a disaster
I am fucking appalled
Let’s not forget the unsung heroes
The ones who don’t get to shine
The pricks of the world
And the dicks who try to rhyme
Then there are the swear-adjacent
Probably where we all start
Learning the power of frick
Or the horrors of a shart
Oh, but when they’re combined
The beautiful music that they make
You shit-ass mother fucker,
I hope you get impaled on a stake!
What about those words
That have more than a single meaning?
After all, a cock is a rooster
And a pussy’s just a kitty
Ah, I know what you’re waiting for
One of the biggest of them all
But if we’re gonna go there
Know it’s actually quite small
Some swear it’s just a myth
Others are still on the hunt
Whether you’ve found it or not
You’re a smug fucking cunt
Happiness Sold Separately
Hammer in hand, pounding away
Shaping and crafting my creation
No, no, this one won’t do
Yet another come out misshapen
Grab the saw, trim it here
Sand down that rough spot there
Throw this one out as well
It could hardly be considered fair
Chisel that spot, grind this bit down
Wipe the dust off, let’s have a look
Yet again, this one’s no good
Nope, see that part where it’s crooked?
This isn’t my first time making it
What am I doing wrong?
Years and years I’ve done this
Seeking that for which I long
Then it hits me out of nowhere
Clouds part and finally I can see
I can manufacture happiness for others
But maybe it was never meant for me
Spiral
A sinking sensation in the chest
Heaviness settling in
Pressing downward, ever downward
Covering a font of positivity
Smiling outwardly to keep anyone
From guessing that
It’s happening again
Can you see it?
Is it obvious?
Mind beginning to race
Overanalyzing every single
Utterance that’s made
It’s best to disappear now
Withdraw into the lair
Letting anyone see this
Is far too much to bear
