Hiatus

Hey, to anyone who cares: I won't be posting anything on this blog for a long time. At least until someone actually comments on any of my posts.

McMurphy's Law



What’s the point of
Lobotomizing myself
With a sturdy, worthless pen?
Pencils break too easily
As does the mind
Every chance it gets, it seems

So the point, I reiterate,
Is the inky tip
Going under my eyelids
In for the kill
Goodbye, everything

1955 Would've Been My Year



I wanna be a beatnik dipstick
Full of blue blood, frozen mud
Socially detached, evenly outmatched
The voice of the weakened and cheapened
Living off floor mints and pocket lint
Struck with leukemia in Bohemia

Level Head



Every trinket here
Is randomly generated chance
Except this line
But not this one

It’s a process of firm feet
Connected to the rest, staring down
An oncoming vehicle
Ready to make mincemeat
Rationality for the masses
Busy lynching their counterparts
Burning their witches

Our picture imperfect beforehand
Is categorized for ease
So we can reflect as simply
As opening a manila folder
With stoutness, so resolute
And future events
Are met with reactive dreams
Of a proactive mindset

And to whomever reads this
I have this to say to
You’re the kindred soul
That may or may not
Explode under pressure
It depends upon minute variables
Swirling around in pure chaos
As for me, I’m the cat in the box
Well acquainted with the poison
But refusing to die

In conclusion, what this means
Is a level head in the face of
Terrifying truth, mere inches away
A perfect science conducted
As the reaction burns a hole
Right through you
And the atoms smash together
With blatant disregard for
The potential energy released

I guess this is my first time...




To be quite frank, I don't know how to start blog posts. Obviously, the title implies I'm a virgin to the blogosphere (never thought I'd say that word). But time is a teacher, I suppose. Well, I guess introductions are in order. My name is Mike, and I'm a poet; a real starving artist type, although I keep myself well-fed. I'm also a comedian, apparently. I'll be posting poems on here from time to time, and hopefully, people will come across this, read my posts, and like it. I'm in it to please, folks. If I have anything important to say, I'll do posts like this, but for the most part, they'll be short-but-sweet pieces. So, until then, that's all she wrote.
