listless kiss good night

let go of my object of rejection today, upon reflection the deflection of empty adoration was too much, spent every penny left over on a one way ticket to the end of the line, single and ready to tingle yet again

that is a lie, the fool’s game of throwing open my chest in an effort to impress is not in the cards anymore, fly alone from here on out, my own way, where ever and when ever my wings take me and beyond

spent too long looking for something that doesn’t exist, at least not for me, something that doesn’t persist, locked the weaker feelings away, to atrophy and die on the vine, to fade away over time, become a ghost

the candy coated shell of emotional disconnect, of the ratification of empty lies and codependent smirks, there was a vacancy there, a lacksadasical majesty, an amnesty from the dreams of fallen grace

a teary goodbye whispered out the open window, an electronic subversion of the hollow promises, a tipping point, a precipice of jagged wounds and honey suckle wine, the stringent taste of alcohol and sighs

the gradual breakdown of mental stability, searching for the reciprocal, the despicable, the antithesis of the normal, treat me like your dog and beat me you beautiful angel with broken wings, just acknowledge me

no more distraction, empty satisfaction, guttural reaction or lazy fanatical severing of the radial glimmer of the fantastical, the impotent interspersion of a blind man’s interpretation of art

a one man jihad against the hallmarkization of the simplest graceful gratification between two incomprehensible beings floundering and blundering through this misanthropic chemtrail of sin

lucid and awash in the swashbuckling adventures of a misspent youth chasing maidens and righting wrongs, lightning in a bottle, full throttle heading towards the edge of the cliff notes version of blatant disregard

triumphant, repugnant, and relatively obscured by the final inbound nocturnal emission of the only landbound shark, predatory and filled with glutinous dietary fibers, probiotics and gene spliced fame

rearranged in a mad scientists lab, probed and groped and laced with cannibalistic tendencies, insatiable and ever hard, throbbing with dissonance and the blasphemous disrespect of teenage mononucleosis

an atom split with the divine scalpel of hypocrisy, an isotope in an age of nuclear decay, counting down the excess electrons of devotional study, of carbon and new age plutonium deposits on the dark side of truth

this is the world I choose to envision, based on division and redundant protocols of a mistaken tale of once upon a time in the garden of heathens, an anthem for the disenfranchised and truant proof

this desiccated thing that feebly beats, an ode to the resistance of the indomitable will of too many dreams left unfulfilled and reprobate imaginings of where it all went wrong, a swan song of bitter tears

the last chance gasp of the suffocating and auto-immune vaccinations suspended in mercury and bile, liquid metals solidified and codified in a centrifuge of inhumane desires and cooked on low for ten hours

a hodge podge crock pot of empty calories and fatty chunks of similarities, destined to be braised and fed to the doggish remnants of a listless kiss goodnight, of flaccid virtue and cognitive discord

sweet dreams, we shall meet at the last stop on this bus ride to the repository for spent emotional displacement, a scenic trip through the inner workings of a clockwork man, bent teeth and broken gears

ticking when it should be tock, clicking when it should be stopped, cradling the face of another half baked reinterpretation of a pocket watch in the dismal afterglow of mourning glory and vivisection

good bye my abject failing, my sour seance, the last ditch effort to effect affection, the imperfect reflection of the sun off of the face of the moon, the cold glimmer of light and absence of oxygenated atmospheric distortition

another listless kiss good night, another sleepless night, another aching fright

from your listless kiss good night
