sad poetry (Remove filter)
II.
toxic train track
metal waste raindrop
incarcerated too long too late
no reply.
faintly.
Risk until one always.
Any ways. Anyways.
fastforward. Visual rewind
incongruity. Incongruous.
Inferior absolutes. Taste
lingering remnant after
gauzy impossibility.
Ending. Search mystified.
Final helping of emptiness

I.
false start.
Draw too deep breath.
Linger too long.
take back break
neck speed one
two don’t stop ask
once no twice
Forget.
Slowly.
Forego solid food.
Count to ten.
hold on elastic pill
tight stretch
release sharp no time
fixing not broken not ever
