Tapped Line

Who hijacked my thoughts?

Tapped Line

Criss-Cross like a checkerboard
The ticked box I was hoping for
Now I`m stuck and dark and lore
Just a punk and a sucker for you

Like a skydiver, my gravities due
Free falling, steal my crown, it’s a Koo
Hit the ground, heart pounds
Just a punk and a dreamer of true

Future dreams,
Dad, can we leave?
"Shhh keep down and keep quiet"
Bullets catch in her teeth on fire…

Fire…

Oh, the lies!
Of pent up strife,
From proposals and the proof of pain
That never fades, never hesitates.
Never gives a damn of his disdain.

About that moment
About how society wants her to feel
About how stains of regret that never heal
About the dreams that waste away…

Away…

Wayward like a holiday play
Give rhyme the choice, take away
And she leaves me wanting more
Just a punk and a sucker for you.

Let loose.
Breath oil fumes
Your crazed too?
What’s really normal?

In this day and age…
The Fish of the Sea

Thanks so much Jim! Yes, for me poetries all about making implicit connections and mapping the network of language. That sounds really deep and nerdy... But hope you get what I mean~ Kind regards my friend. Max
