poem #1

i followed it and tackled it, angry,
until i had it headlocked

it swallowed spit and when it bit, fangy
my arm hung limp in deadlock

when will feelings learn
to wait until their turn to show

resentment to me
on the street is where everyone knows

that i loved you and from you,
the one thing i got in return

was this feeling of reeling
like butter, these guts pound and churned


heart be still, it's my will
and only my sense you obey

i'll be ruled by no hearty fools
oh please tool me tward matters of grey

for the brain holds no pain
just the stains that remain
of the memories that stayed to serrate

but my heart is a lark
that will start to embark
at the speed of a quark and migrate
