superposition

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.

***

you know what happens if i do
i’ll come with a destructive force 
contradicting myself
exalting myself
and in the process annihilate myself.
and yet no one no one no one is willing
all they see is the Yggdrasil
and the wealth of buffoonery
all for their ravenous eyes to see.
i have cut my ears 
i have blinded my eyes
i have cut my fingers
i no longer want to hark, or feel
anything
i only want to float 
in the sea of anonymity.

***

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?

  1. 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.
