Open mic The blend is sweet music in ears The keyboard rivals the unrest in my soul

Oh god I’m trying to be clever What rhymes with September? Denver? All have is intrusive thoughts That I write down and pass off as poems
Oh god, it’s September! I wish I couldn’t remember I’ve been in such a hurry Scurrying here and there It’s that time of year
It’s more important to press pen to paper Before the thoughts disappear into vapor But an aberration of the mind Like the clocks chiming
Like coffee and cigarettes Unfiltered and raw Is how I draw the thoughts from my mind Sometimes it’s the only way I can unwind
Unfiltered and unflattering A little of this A spattering of that I always write off the cuff There’s not much time to think about it
The mind sees what the eyes refuse to see The road to hell is paved with well behaved slaves Constructing staves to save my mind
Humankind having ample exemplars to sample Hath deemed the fruits of your mind void of substance subsurface to rind.

In the shadows of memories, Where love once burned like fire, I learned that hearts can shatter, Yet from the shards, new dreams inspire.You were the storm, I the leaf,
