It is currently 6:51 in the early morning. I have yet to sleep. I must also be at work at 11, which is approximately only four hours away. I doubt that sleep will indeed occur at all tonight. I am updating this right now because I can't think of anything else to do and I would also like to stop The Bitching.
I wrote me a thingy last night, and I post it here not because I seek the crude ejaculations you mongoloids call "thoughts," but so I will have a digital copy in case someone who does not know what they are doing once more crashes this computer. When have you have finished reading, you may go back to soiling yourselves.
It’s 3:37 am and I should be sleeping
But there’s been too much coffee
And too many cigarrettes
And the buzzing
That’s been in my head for days
Is too strong for sleep.
Writing helps, sometimes,
But it’s been hard lately,
To catch an idea long enough
That I can think.
They’re out there somewhere, the ideas,
Flickering through the buzzing
Like the little fish that you see
Sometimes
In the shallowest part of the ocean
Where the water is only a foot deep
Or so, and the little blurry
Brown blobs swim between
And around your legs, and dart
Away when you move, so you stand
There in the water with
The waves breaking
On your knees, still enough
For the little fish to keep swimming.
The ideas have to come
First to you;
Grabbing at them is as useless,
And about as stupid
As reaching for the projections
In one of those
Cheesy 3-d movies
That people keep making.
Your hand never quite touches it.
But if I can stay still
Long enough, they come.
Not like the little fish but
Like on of the sudden big waves
That almost knocks you down
Because you weren’t ready for it.
If I can keep balanced,
Keep both feet on the sand
That is never damn firm enough,
The wave pulls back
And leaves
A word or a line
Louder than the buzzing.
Then, then I’ve got it,
I don’t need the distractions
And games and towys
That keep the buzzing back
And I can be fine for days.
How long, though,
Am I supposed to stand here,
Not moving,
Watching the little fish that
I can’t catch, listening to that
Goddamn buzzing
That’s louder than ten thousand
Oceans and I think
Might be driving me a little mad?
It’s 4:11 am and I should be sleeping.
It's fucked up the stanzas somehow, there shouldn't be a space between every line. That would be stupid.
