Branch of Sweetness

I hereby declare my copy n' paste career over (heeding Sacrelicious' admonition). I write only new stuff for blog now!


THE REST OF IT GOES HERE
Branch of Sweetness
Fingers clinging bitterly to the branch of sweetness,
Married to back and forth musings, writing tidbits
In notebooks while the bank account slips to shit,
I wish my soul to be sealed in a lovely envelope
Addressed to future misfits in the handwritten script
Of my latest love with a stamp bearing my likeness.
For giving back to my clique’s posterity in this way
May my ears be licked clean by higher beings now,
May the music of the universe be received with joy,
Then surely I’ll cease giving voice to juvenile hubris
And the eternal sag of exhaustion may finally lift,
And the drizzle against my days may die at last.
