Found Poem







We are not drawing on your nightmares
So look to the future
and make your own fragile new world.
Is it doomed?
Is another bright spot giving you a hollow excuse
of our Hero?
"He is a man."

Medical Desires


I'm sure it is all fun and games until you close my air ways
And you keep pulling me under
You know it's easier to have fun, when you hold the gun
Still you insist that a forced aneurysm
Has never looked better with that pale blue sweater I always wear
I never did consider the stakes
Of sliding down a snake, after I triumphed over that ladder
But what does it matter
This relation smells like decay and forgotten flowers
And did you forget my forget-me-nots in a matter of hours?


You keep me alive in your basement with buttons and wires
And I'm so fun to play with, in your hospital
Of medical desires
So keep pretending you know what I like
All I ask is that you sterilize that knife
Before you jam it some place, it doesn't exactly fit
But as long as I'm inebriated by your love
I'm okay with it

Tighten my straps because I know I will struggle
I'll fight and attempt to escape
Without any caution to that gun in my face
Please don't get the wrong idea
I love being with you my dear
But one average man, can only take so much abuse
Before he starts to tie his own noose
I'll stand on that chair, and I hope through it all
I can still count on you
To kick it out, and watch me almost-fall
Kicking barely lifeless on nothing but chicken wire
And dreams really do come true
In your hospital of medical desires
