A rhyme with no place to go. (Free verse) by darby pyn
It starts slow. dilated discreet below your thoughts. just a wrinkle in your sigh just a line between the dots. with each connection a little quicker peel the pulp from the root. excommunicate the alter. leave the choir standing mute trim the sleeves from your shoulder lean forward to exert. stain the sides with your sweat. extend to insert. solitaire in solitary, monastery, voluntary. with my lies I be wed another bullet for my head another metaphor instead take the pillows from my bed. turn fast before the crash. let’s add a little speed. sunder under a blinking pass an autograph my adjective insignia in memorandum. let the tattoo bleed. the highway walls sell contraband covered with dead propaganda. malignant palms squeeze saturation hieroglyphic masturbation. swear the world with my graffiti slang with abstract contradiction age disclaimer obituary cemetery. sacrifice. sanctity in suicide. hypocrisy in memory. ignorance in denial. denial. denial denial.

Up the ladder: My Angel
Down the ladder: famous

'malignant palms squeeze saturation
hieroglyphic masturbation.'
This line about graffiti is awesome! This is a strange poem, with layers that warrant repeated reads. I read it several times, and it grew on me more each time. Good job. Actually, it would make great lyrics I think!

Thank you Lady poet.
I'm a musician so the line between songwriting
and poetry often cross.
thanks again.
