8 Parts Haiku, 2 Parts Vodka

April 16, 2005

downtown all lit up
burning out on Sinese lights
feed your neon fix

bright sun in dark room
burn my eyes and kill my soul
take what you can, run

she stares in soft pain
wounded soul in weakened state
you see not through me

red scratches in ink
blood spilled to express the pain
I can feel no more

she pounces on keys
Norwegian forest kitten
typing masterpiece

measure out your life
death is in minute details
one inch at a time

civilization
epitome of greatness
when in Rome, burn it

People’s Republic
freedom is over-rated
enjoy your prison
