My confessional moment about all things that are important to me. this poem seeks to tie my troubling thoughts together, in order to view it as a whole.
My confessional diary is like a drill that digs into my chest
water gushes out and dampens my dark-blue-shirt,
spectators watch in silence hoping to read what happens next,
disciples hold their pens as they stare and anticipate my raising,
a new decision flows freely from my heart; poetry will honor women.
I lie in bed; my dreams are very different from yesterday.
Dreadfully today gives lower back pain, I aspire to recreate yesterday.
Drained empty, it burdens me sadly to attend the funeral of L.P.
Accomplishments are obtained by ambition,
poetry without passion is a body without purpose,
Oneal without god is love without growth.
Thou shall not envy his neighbor
learn to turn the other cheek.
I ignored your calls and texts, oh Vulture
Wont answer your emails your blocked forever.
Facebook?
Our friendship drowned in the toilet
gone as a pound of flesh carved from your body.
Built with wipers that wash away landscape poetry,
My car navigates around rotten poets
who cling to broken-tree-branches and colored-leaves.
My Lexus is justice for every young poet.
My books cement my position as
a Canadian fighting for the integrity of all poets.
I have heard; “Salvation comes after His death”
is what some Christians have said,
“Belief in one God”
is what all Muslims have said.
I say, love is like air, necessary for all of us
so I would prefer to shake the hands
of Jacob and Esau; children of Abraham.
