H o n e s t y


Open spaces, free or trapped?

Can't brothers learn to just forgive?

Or bake in angst, foil fresh-wrapped.

Just guide me to re-learn, re-live.

Metal is a rougher trade.

High rise skirts and shirts low-cut-

Bro, you think you've got it made.

Apathy, it digs my rut.

Sixty seconds from the moment,

My lips form words that sound so shallow-

Idle lies, an idle comment,

Drown in bile I'm forced to swallow.

Still and silent, almost hating-

Almost, almost sick of waiting.


In the mood for poetry recently. This is more or less a take on Michelangelo, bordering the pre-SAINW universe.
