Literature Text

you paint your head each night
and he'll think you're pretty.
buzzing neon and drinks down the hatch

a broken sense of orgasm stunted...

tangled bedsheets
feelings felt and all that you wont,
you've fallen frail.

she stands in the dark staring into oblivion
the far away so near and back again
silent screams shattering these windows...

don't go. you'll only want to leave again.

picket fence teeth gleaming with lies
white washed and pearly...
the lives she'll take with them...
the souls she'll suck away.

he dies a million years in a second...
reality beckoned from far away and so near
shed tears drown his shattered brown windows...

just go.  you'll only want to come again.

powdery poles lit up
sanity smoked...
a cigarette they say will kill -
but it's remedy for the dead...

the stars have buried themselves in the ground
headstones for lovers lost...
reminders for the lost that love

stars nonetheless.
shit shit shit its all shit

this reminds me of Radiohead's Nude, in particular the line "Don't go. You'll only want to leave again." 'she stands'...

It seems to carry the exact same message. It carries it in very similar imagery too, though perhaps this poem is the photo-negative of that song.

I like it. I've always liked your work. Dark and unsparing, yet very takable, like bad medicine with an addictive tangy aftertaste.
