Fabricated Angst
by X-tabai
Another poem, plain package
smuggled through my fingers
under cover of loneliness.
Trite subject - paper cut love,
stinging with lemon memory,
salted by cynical prophecy.
Time wasted; words weathered
from storms of repetition. My life,
a tornado trashed trailer park.
But what was the instrument -
a pen, paper, my own strained voice
pulling down imaginary walls.
Muse of tragedy lies broken
beneath a dirt bed of neglect. I think
she never really sang for me -
I sang for myself.

the clever thing to do here would be to put some sort of copyright. no.
