Not a Poem

This is a poem
No it is not.
Roses a red –
no the aren't.
They're scarlet.
Violets are blue –
No, they're not.
They're actually violet.
Poems are supposed
to create an image
 that the reader can
tangibly relate to.
Golden tears like –
stop it. Remember
that this isn't 
a poem.
It's not.
The Sun isn't red
like my passion.
Nor is the
Moon white like
my "pure" sympathy.
I already told
you that this
isn't a poem.
Don't you get it?
Stop reading this.
Just because
           the writing
                     changed in 
                             structure
                                    does not
                                          mean that
                                        this is a bona-fide poem. I take things and
                                               I like to throw 'em.  When
                              I am writing poems like I am
    not
                                                                        right now. I always write
 like this. It's just a habit of
 mine.
I did not just do a slant rhyme.
                                 I have a thigh.
DARN IT!
ARRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
That wasn't just
onomateopoeia.
                                Did I mention that 
                          this wasn't a poem?
I like not writing poems.
It's like blowing out candles 
on a birthday cake. 
Or sipping your first soda.
It feels
so great not
                       writing a poem like this.
Oh man.
                           
So good.
                   I'm done 
with this
pointless non-
poem.
It's over.
Hah.

The Low-Down

This is just an announcement -- My Poems are pretty much random.
Whatever idea I get, I'll just go with. So my poems could be about Schizophrenia,
Time Travel, the opposite sex, or, (one of my personal favorites)
the Jesus Man.
If you're not comfortable with my blog, then just don't visit.
If you like it, then stay.
That's All I have to say.
(The rhyme was intentional).

Tunes

Numbed and Addled
                                          by an airstrike of amplified electricity.
                                                    but there remains
                                                                             a clandestinely
                                            benevolent injury
                              bleeding peace and 
                                                                              complacence.
                                     trying to bandage it up with the
                                            gauze of insecurity
                                                 the ointment of doubt and the
                                                         bandage of facade
                    but the infection spreads.
                                                                 and I gladly let it
                                                            Amplify and Multiply.
                                 Hurt,
                                                             yet oddly satisfied.
                                           Sounds good, Man.
                        
                                 

And so it begins...

I have decided to post my writings and such on the interweb.
Yeah, well this is the start I guess.
Beginning.
Of.
Things.
