A Sailors Bottle Message (Free verse) by SupremeDreamer
--
Oh pink bunny
That thinks I lost my humanity
Don't you know that
I sail the sea's
Of dreams
In a rusted metal bath tub
The remains of an incomplete
Underwater submarine?
Oh yes, you cry out
Proclaiming that I am a machine.
But, alas, you have not seen
The spirit soul
That held once the burned coal
Of hateful revenge,
Set ablaze long ago.
Human cyborg plagued
With the rushing flood
Of emotional toxic blood
The waters of past suffering
That left the razor blade
Cuts of the last crusade
Which made the machine
That you believe I am
Indeed you do hallucenate
The psychotic narcissism
That is the cursed fate
Cast upon the clan
Named the black sheep
Outcasts of society
Confident you are
But, you have not traveled far
In the oceans of poetry.
But still you place yourself
As equal to the pirates.
Manning battleship cruisers,
Equipped with the weapons
Needed to slay harlets,
With sugar coated titles,
And flower metals...
The faded memory of hippies.
Poem ranker kiddies
Daring to stain the devine
Writings of artists.
You speak of style
Yet, all the while
There still lies
An unfinished pile
Of diverse form
In your closet of
Moth eaten wool clothing:
The rags of a peasant
Such things realized
Are not seen as
A battle hardened sailor
In fine shape.
But are known as
Targets, virgin beauties
To be raped, their tender lips
Taped shut, the maiden heads
Left savagely cut.
