Inspire me

Will you try to
Distract me?
Drag me by the teeth back to reality.
I have a lock jaw
In case you haven't noticed.
And a mad spark in my eye
Like a bad seed.

Loose your hands
In great hand-fulls of my hair.
Pin me down
With your knees
To steal a kiss from me?
I'll bite you!

You can try to
Over power me
But in reality
Your attempt
At control
will only free me
To greater detriment.

Whats at the crux of it?
Depression, self absorbing sentiment?
Maybe
I'm in a dark mood
Don't bug me!!

You can try to
Inspire me
But I wish you wouldn't waste your time.
Don't try to rob me of my all important angst!!!

    I enjoyed the short verse in this poem. It really fit well with the topic in this particular piece. You have really tied it together here and it really shows. The language is beautiful and you really get your point across clearly. You have done a very good job here with this piece.

    lovely

    This is a very playful, yet dark poem. It's quircky and I like it! Very interesting. I really like the last stanza. Hm, good job. Thanks for posting!
