Seppuku

Post by Kailashana » August 7th, 2011, 8:14 am

I commit seppuku on blank paper,
spill my guts onto its pristine emptiness
stark and bloodied words fall out
mix with my warm entrails

these wounds are never healed
they open every time I feel
they open every time I write

they open me to what flows
through my mind,
into my heart
coursing the rivers of my being
on the way
to your eyes.

We all "spill our guts" from time to time...
Sometimes, what we spill comes out shiny,
like this poem of yours. Keep posting 'em!

break on thru
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
