I requested peace But instead became fabric Bought from a store of madness Those leathery hands touched the silk of my inner Feeling the quality of my chaos. I lay Waiting I am bought Spread across a table The scissors Those scissors Cut through me Measuring me like haunted opinions. I'm stuck with pins Slicked with sweat from my creators fingers Why? Why are you doing this to me? I want to cry But I am nothing but fabric Sewed into what others want me to be To do To see I am all sewed up and priced up I am bought again Although I am something different My new owner puts me on Oohing and ahhing I've heard the phrase “Wear the clothes and don’t let the clothes wear you.†I'm going to wear this human today The fabric becomes skin Because my ambition is stronger now The details and lines are my veins Those flowery designs.... That’s part of my heart I am human art formed by earth I refuse to be on anybody’s cutting table Instead I am a canvas My skin My mind My heart My soul …Is the very ink of creativity The very fabric of who I am No scissors and needle will affect me I am liquid The threaded revelation that manipulates form I am a new world within A fabric of understanding, learning and loving I will not let those designs of my life fade Like ancient cloth I will constantly be refreshed Like seasonal rain on grass and flowers I will forever grow and shine |
L4 the adjective "inner" needs a noun, you could call this discrepancy style but consider making it 'inner self or inner soul. L35 "that's part of my heart"…should be 'that are part of my heart', the reason being "that's" means 'that is' this is singular, "those flowery designs" which precedes it is plural, it should be 'that are'.| Posted on 2015-04-15 00:00:00 | by monad | [ Reply to This ] | Strained as it might seem this brings to mind my martial arts avatar "carousel ceaselessly ceremony chaos character charisma", and "amalgamated anathema android". Though I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want to wear the people which this proxy (garment) was fallaciously sold to, I'm damn sure I'd want to impress upon them the execrating eventuation evocative this expletives caused me. Give them the old citizen's arrest for accepting stolen merchandise. Yet in human terms we all get passed around to a degree, I like to think this social contiguity could impetus intrigue be a good thing but I feel you. Often it's sort of a misanthropic vicarious recalcitrance rather than the intuitional intrepid it integrity ought to be. Even still I try to remain (aimed their environment) philanthropically phenological with the ingrates!! | | Posted on 2015-03-19 00:00:00 | by monad | [ Reply to This ] | |
