I oughta be dead

Post by hester_prynne » July 13th, 2008, 3:22 pm

When it comes to love
I'm a cracked reflection,
held together
by a stoic nevermore,
will I give my heart.

Tossed back so many times
in little broken pieces,
shattered bits of mirror
like shrapnel, cut me deep.
I oughta be dead.

Yet here I am still standing,
clumsily caulked,
a mosiac fool,
hoping, waiting,
to hear love's call again.
"I am a victim of society, and, an entertainer"........DW

we shld all be dead.

a parade of mosaic fools...
godless & songless, western man dances with the stuffed gorilla through all the blind alleys of a dead-end world.
