it's like
i dont know what poetry is any more
certain lee no thing i write / /
i'm ask ed the other day / are you a poet
i mean /do you write poems / actual poems
i mean / i know you write prose / but cant
you write rhyme ing poet tree /
no / all i can do / is / slash / slash / slash
i'm told / your writing sucks / / i'm told
i decide
apathy / a give a fuck attitude / /
& i claim these words as / my own
& the weather drops to
november dull / st.ill / birds chirp
anxious to colour the day / some thing
any thing / all that's left are the mountain ash
glee full / clusters of red hang from bare branch es
ridge of elephant mountain / now white snow
face of elephant mountain / milk blue / could swear
i see ever green / lost
& my legs ache / my muscles a twitch with
wry pain / one which loves to / love me
& why does the tree grow so crook ed / so paper
white /
see / life hasn't been the same since
nirvana walk ed thru this door of ethereal bliss
it was bliss / wasn't it / the clean air you said
the mountains you raved / all this fuck ing water
all this fuck ing dark ness / & yeah / i walk thru the valley of
all this fuck ing dark ness / & i'm wonder ing / where is light
& black blood creeps from body / drains
in to
i have no dreams / ah / it's a revelation
to wake & not remember / not remember a
god damn thing / /
& no thing comes back / no faces / lost names
oh / for get me not / how harsh words can be
& may be i should / just for get how to write them
for get how to say
you see / this is an exercise in futile
what did you think it was going to be
i thot / if i let my head bleed / my body
flow / well / i thot i would feel better
& did you
for a while / it ebbs / flows / there's
that word a gain / blood flows / i've seen
it pour / body is a crzy place
so what does that have to do with / well
you know /
no / i don't know / i don't have a fuck ing clue
with writing / fuck / how could you for get that
hey / i for get a lot of things / like / what i did
last week / & what did you say your name was a gain
hey / don't get personal / i prefer to remain name less
but whats the point of be ing name less / how will i know
who you are
you know who i am / you've all ways known
this is start ing to sound like episode 3
that was good wasn't it / i mean / episode 3
yes it was / excellent special effects / big noises
i guess i could just watch movies / in stead / fill
my mind with holly wood / stop this other bull shit
now there's an idea / you know / there's a lot of good
movies out these / begging to be watch ed /
problem is / i won't remember any of them / see i think
to really appreciate a good movie / it should be seen a couple
of times / plays & books are like that too /
so / your point be ing
there is no point / it's all point less / futile / i give up
no / don't do that / you're just tired / that's all
certain lee / it is a low point / you know / body crash es
mind soon follow's / what's to write a bout when i'm
consumed
true true / people get sick & tired / of sick & tired
try to write some thing happy / may be it'll get you over
the slump
slump / thanx
well / what ever it is / / you can't go on like this
it turns you in to a bucket of nerves
geezuz fuck / what a terrible image / i really should
stop writing
/
