if neglect is the same as abandonment, if one simply forgets out of the sheer fluidity of time, then there is no point of us talking at all, in intercessions. i am your intermediate, nothing more. i am happier this way, being only a secret of yours. but i would have preferred it another way.
and the wealth of buffoonery
anything
***
if everything is cryptic
meriting only finallys and smileys
on your part, because you can’t write
only speak in limited syllables
i with my neurotic bitter
pulsating madness
deranging our little arrangement
that i succumbed ultimately
have i lost? did i lose myself my soul my self my wit
was it all a ruse to see how long i can endure
your crumbling boredom
because frankly what i want is the unattainable
but i don’t know where he is (but i do)
only that he lives, somewhere (but where?)
with a friend of mine whom i taught
how to read to write and to live live live
sorrowfully like me
( i dare not to ask more)
imagine this,
i fashioned him to my likeness
or to the likeness of the ideal
watched him grow,
fed him my soul,
a babe who has outgrown me
deformed into a monstrosity.
all this out of boredom.
imagine me.
but where shall i place you?

meh pot, this is boring. aku nak gi mandi.
can't you like…get him to write a poem in reply? That would be so romantic hah. Just saying.Also, since we're on the subject (or are we? nt tht it matters) I refer to him as 'The Poet' because well, I kinda wrote smthg of tht title with him, myself (& just about every other person who fancies themselves a 'poet') in mind. Ok, it's general bt he's the spark before the flame that is the muse geddit? lol.
