Drooping Eyes & Dangling Wallet Chains

(freewrite)

Drooping eyes,
and dangling wallet chains,
whatever you want to call it...rains,
we get so wet,
motionless swingsets...should hardly be called,
the mere possibility of something to be,
surely doesn't make it so proud,

I've got it all in my sights,
it's rather overwhelming,
like faces lit by campfire light wide-eyed from the ghost-story-telling,
my nightmares are not out of tune lullabys,
sung waveringly mixed words to all passerbys,

I'm so nervous,
to share my own words,
that sometimes I just share my phone number first,
then cower in the corner waiting for attention,
it seems that the only thing I can arouse anymore is suspicion,

Even that, is only sparingly,
why can't I get these intellectual-wannbe motherfuckers to stare at me?

they anger me so,
that I wish I belonged as one of them,
I wish I remembered when...I was,

maybe when I'm thirty,
but planning out my own persona makes me feel so dirty,
cleanliness is overrated, well,
unless it's your hands making me a sandwich,
it's such arrogant attitudes that overfeed some and leave the rest of us famished,

I'm not worried about going hungry,
or not having money,
I'm worried that sometimes I'm not going according to plan,
and I hate reading manuals,
so now my current situation you better understand,

once a man,
now just flesh and bone,
I remember how I got here,
I just hope I forget how to get home.

Umm, save the prayer for someone in greater need, but thanks for the thought.

I'd stare at you you sexy beast.  and, umm, I think you could classify me as an intellectual-wann*a*be motherfucker.

Once again, you've captured *me* in words, and made a virgin wanna rape you all in the same stanza.

"""""I remember how I got here,

You know what?  I'm *not* gonna pray for you.  I'm not even gonna pray for me. 

I'm gonna pray that everyone can be as kickass as the both of us.

With Sincere Respect,

Trinitie

Trin, I appreciated all of that except for the rape comment passed off as compliment...replace with the word "jump" perhaps. Though, I know you meant no offense.

Thx

You know, I seem to be offending every lately.  Sorry.  Dan (My Love) almost "cut me off" for something i said to his love (that he wont admit is his love).

Grrr....

I need to work on not being me.....so much..'
