fumes (Free verse) by FreeFormFixation
my helpless- skin cells on duct tape peeled off in the shape of lips. my helpless, lie down in a distorted muddle of blahs and moans. and take me with you. my helpless- you stay sick on mattresses piled in the shape of a bucket. move with the pieces through the bile and stretch one arm out to pull me in with you. as i helplessly push your hair aside.

Up the ladder: Bush Fire

A cross between Nirvana's 'Polly' and Beck's 'Fumes'. Not as good as either.

The three "my helpless"'s don't work very well.
