Click hereIt's time for a change
of my frame of mind
to a range
i've never climbed-
one of
real fast
healin'.
There ain't time
for all this self-absorbed shit.
The world is suffering
everyone's drowning in it.
We can try to enlighten
but it mightn't be timely
and then they're all still lost
in a sea
of misery.
Comedy is precious,
laughter, it is needed.
I got hurt and yes it bleeded.
Set my own cares behind now.
Be of service.
Don't be nervous.
Steppin' up to the plate
getting over that bleedin'
Nose.
Cause i pierced it, and
fierce, it hurt,
was going fine by week three,
then damn,
unmindfully,
I rubbed it,
accidentally.
Broke the cheap stud,
the blood flowed like rain.
Took it out of my nose
so it wouldn't debrain me
while I slept,
but then
in the mornin'
wouldn't go back in
couldn't force it.
Had to divorce it.
That hole don't take plugs no more.
Can't heal a broken heart for years
but the nose, it ain't like that
Too fast
the skin grows back.
So here's some advice
when your heart's t'ween your toes:
Be the nose.
....aloud. It's a wild ride but I have to agree, it could be tightened and pruned for even more impact.
Yes, glad it's subtle. Thanks for the tip- I was going for a cadence that works when I speak it, but maybe not when read silently. Def too wordy for silent poetry.
don't know if it was intended. I think (disclaimer) it could loose some words and gain greater impact/flow/cadence. nice close.
