In a cold sweat I’m buried in
Negligence
And you’re very
Nice to come here and carry me
Down the stairs and
Over Jesus, Joseph, and Mary
Until our final dying day
Taking its last breath from us
Only to, at the end, smile and say
For all of the times you were generous your
Efforts have no meaning
Vicious? Yes, but you’re bleeding from your
Ears, that’s why you can’t hear the cantor leading the congregation through
Revival so I tell
You to imagine the worst. Now
Take that and imagine worse. That’s
How far gone I am- does it really make a difference if
I’m gifted or cursed?
Never in the average, always
God’s anointed selfless last or the devil’s selfish first
Tell myself to walk outside, would you please
Hold my place in line?
Eventually I’ll make my way back but
Who knows if I’ll be in time
Or if such a ludicrous idea
Really exists you know you don’t have to
Listen to this
Darling, feel free to just dismiss my
Constant
Aching
No body else is watching cause
No body else gives a damn
Our secrets are here for the
Taking but
Sadly you have been mistaking
All of this gossip for who I actually am
This melodramatic staging of salvation
Is in dire need of intermission
So lets rise against this
Frivolous storyline
You and
Me
Exiting cause we’re doing just fine
And we’d sooner
Need our

Drunken driving publicized than
Make ourselves once more apologize for these
Years of bohemian ecstasy
Courting their way through the closed door
Outlandishly caressing the asshole taking
Notes 'til his aged fingers are sore
Venom
Is a
Conniving
Term-as
If we wouldn’t all prefer to take
Our prey as easily as the
Never failing
Snake

good job

lovely acrostic

Incredible. The acostic bonus!

Goody eye Poetic! I didn't even notice that until I read your comment. Very observant. Now I will be looking for acrostic intentional or accidental in all of Kat's poems for now on.

Great job Kat.

Thank you (((Mirror, Poetic, Kim, J)))



I do that a lot...
Thank you sweets

Your only goal now is to write something that will disappoint. But I feel that goal will remain out of your reach forever!!!!!!!
Fantastic!!

Another very good one.

Enough frivolity!
Come dance.
