    August 11th, 2026

    The blue,
    There it is
    In all its glory.

    Like some fairy tale
    That was shared
    To me, too late
    For anything really,
    Substantial.

    However, I ponder
    On, and prefer
    Mysteries
    To soothe my soul

    Instead of harmless
    Fairy tales
    And creation myths
    That come to me,
    In the night; and consume
    Me, with demons
    That tear through my
    Imaginary flesh.

    My brain burning
    For another memory,
    Of which I failed, and
    Tried again.

    I have this longing
    For parties and
    Drugs that make me
    Escape to another planet
    Like a poem that soothes me so.

    I wish there was an easier path,
    To resist something falling
    From a platform
    And wishing for
    Gold.

    Smith the sword,
    Pan the gold,
    And dig up diamonds.
    They’re from your
    Dreams.

    Fantasies,
    That explore ruins
    Left by
    Societal disaster, and emotional
    Damage.

    A drowned victim
    Of falsehoods, and
    Enlightenment.

    I wish there was another way,
    To not be so
    Lonely.
    However, intelligence and
    Clarity, never find a way.

    So groove your shoes, and
    Tackle your back pain.
    Call it an adventure, and now somewhere
    In the afterlife, of disaster
    Will I be happy?
