torn plastic mache smile

By knightmirror

torn plastic mache smile
scattered in the chilly wind
over here
over there
under....

under the bridge of enthusiasm
riding ripples of jacinth joy
some there
somwhere
inside...

inside catastrophic currents
flowing like the placid blood
in my veins
from my pains
appear...

appear in lucid dreams then vanish
like a coat of varnish on this hutch
in the corner
on the wall
blocking..

blocking me from seeing every angle
in my means to escape this torrid
torent teasing the dissipating clouds
forming above my crown of concussions
leaking wisdom i spent years to
obtain

journeying through caverns of concave
corruption

only to be thrown out

into the chilly wind

to reunite with
my torn plastic
mache smile

    Hmm...flow was good...you on the other hand, are an assmaster. Your assmasterness does nothing to tone down the good-ness of this poem. Rock on.

    this reads extremely well. Some of the lines seem like they might sound better switched around, but it is very nice indeed
