Late Night Bullshit

March 27th, 2005 @ 3:48 am by hordak 

i'd rather be anywhere
anywhere i can run to
anywhere that's dark
secluded

any place at all anywhere i can count an endless string of worries anywhere you aren't and they aren't

i can make it all

STOP.

(i can't...)

just wanted you to know that i think about you and in the soft glow of a computer monitor my face looks sunken, sallow as i rattle off this self-indulgent poetry casting myself as the nostalgic hero who never worries and always feels good about things who is perpetually 22 and everything to you.

    Well, that’s totally fucked. It was a whole lot better when it was fucking spaced properly.

    Oh well. I was never a poet anyway.

    I like the repetition of the word any (and its variations) in the first two stanzas and how they juxtapose themselves with the word STOP. It creates a very tense feeling.

    Thanks for fixing the spacing on that, loki. Now it’s at least readable again. :)
