Dark swirling the living dregs.
The dead of the day.
Swelling maturity smothered the breath right out.
Swallowing veins of scrutiny.
Lost on social equity.
The humble rumblings of another lost soul,
Finding themselves in a spinning tempest of civility.
Born from desperation.
Carried on the backs of entire generations.
Hope for life.
Hope for beauty.
Hope for love.
Hope for tomorrow
Hope for a handle on the moment.
It never comes to those who look.
And those who own find no use for the grip.
Having, already, the satisfaction.
A state of perpetual pity and remorse.
The sores of tomorrow form the more painful scars of today.
Scars that we only feel when the weather is as forelorned as we.
The ugly blemish in the community of perfect cells.
Welcome
Hello, and welcome to my daily poetry blog. The following poems are improvised based on my day, general reflections, or by just allowing my mind to cruise in neutral without a filter. I have been working on this for something around two years now and have amassed a lot of words. You can either go through them page by page, or check out the "Hall of Better Poems" option in the right column. Please feel free to comment on what you like or dislike, and also subscribe below if you like this sort of thing. Thanks!

(typically I will write down my ideas on paper throughout the day and I may not get in front of a computer to transfer it. So I then dump a few days worth of poems at once.)
