can't (Free verse) by nentwined
can't won't will not FUCK
can't think the thought for the thought that is stuck
in my head won't relent --
gods I'm spent.
the will is a'twisting around my chest cavity
stressing the gravity
the forces of death
life
rebirth and the moment
is paused.
paaaaaaused...
STOP! crystalline moment of nothing is done
crystalline moment of mind that is numb, dumb, mute
can't refute
that nothing is changing but the time which is passing
around me in waves splashing ashore;
acid burning my skin, knocking for entrance
knocking to KNOCK to WAKE the fuck up
STOP staring stop stopping STOPSTOPSTOPSTOPSTOP!
do the things that need doing, the lists that you've listed
take them two fisted
and slam the tasks back --
fill your belly on FILLING the rut:
fuck this "can't".
can?
