I've never been a big fan of/any good at traditional poetry styles, so I've always leaned towards spoken word.
Here's a little diddy of mine.
Lemme know what you think
--------
(Untitled)
lets go outside and watch the rain
so trivial
but when you're around
everything is slow-motion
so allow me to sit and observe
your reflection in every drop
and find inspiration to live
to love
to be me
not what you all want to see
fuck, you dont even know me
you dont know what i aspire to be
that itch that you cant scratch
that wound that wont close
that bud that wont rose
those tears that wont stop
--------
Sheep in Wolves Clothing
i see now that you were the wolf this whole time
so please excuse me while i pull the wool over your eyes
and if that doesnt serve as an ample disguise
then allow me to shit on your disposition
then set fire to your intensions
and as i perform these tones
around your bones
ill observe this swirling rancid smoke
and notice how it so perfectly it provides a cloak
for all the obvious wasted lies
and how we both came to dispise
even the simple notion that we could join in union
or even the tiny action of a reunion
and when the fires ceased
i stepped forward and released
a loathing
all along you were a sheep in wolves clothing
--------
Visual Cultivation
I stand aside to watch her body perform
Actions parallel to the surreal edge of heaven
Every motion comparable to a sonata form
With a grace known only to sixth sense comprehension
And as i rearrange her limbs in picasso contribution
Her creation is idealized
And full beauty contemplated with bloodless revolution
Her idea surrealized
When finished a masterpiece
Her body a centerpiece
For the dining platform of christ's last meal
I drew her towards myself
Wondering if this is simply ego ideal
Impossible
Her complete being perfect
With the power to affect
Every self-induced motion
Causing one to subject
Himself to multiple instance subjective emotion
Distance action creating full devotion
To a hollow affection
--------
Fundamentalist
Oh, such a debilitated attempt to inspire
This statue of relentless dogma
Refusing retrocession amongst the mire
Unmarred presence, blemished by the stigma
Evolution becomes a lurid abomination
Preaching only disfavor
Accusations and malevolence promising salvation
Hatred the believed path to the savior
My beloved advocate with a serpent’s tongue
-------
Lemme know what you think of these. I may attend open mic night here at a local cafe, so I'd like some opinions before I go.
