Your existence is hard for me to handle
a bunch of dots in ink and memory
beautiful arrangements made in matter and time
don't have to hear the bell chime
to know they'll wake us up from this dream
cold chiselled taxi
looks through the lens a starin'
your genii sparrow eyes and tearing
eyes off as your gaze sweeps too near
And not just the clothes that you're wearin
quite as the other 'tractions'nicially seem to go.
Filled up head with alc tone-slept fuzz so
some what hard to comp'rend
emotions burn impatient cohen in the brain
an any hormone tones is moreso neuro pathways now
for but it feels been too long now; self indulgent, un
no, I'm not just sayi'n.

Holy Cow! This is a GREAT write, my friend. Unfortunately, it is not in the same realm that I am looking for. Thanks for entering though. You should enter this in another contest. It is great!

thanks for the feedback, my freind. Unfortunately it and numerous other similar messages have led me to the epithany that I am, in fact, the greatest man alive! My freinds and family would like to enclose their irritation. most encouraging. I would send similar messages to other people, but i couldn't be effed. So if someone calls me a dickhead just tell them I'm lazy.
