Hey guys, this has been a long time, but I’ve just been SUPER busy what with that little problem of school, my Ubyssey article, and directing my one act. Hopefully I can have a proper blog post soon, but for now, here’s just a poem I wrote five minutes ago, let me know wacha think 🙂
Running fast through the forests,
Running free
Trees zoom by like water rushing
Trees seeing me
I could run forever,
In this cradle of bloated slivers,
Had I lived a thousand years ago,
Meeting concrete never
I’d run until endless blue shows
Here in the time of happiness
I am free
Here in the time of simplicity,
I can see
The answer to all the clues I was searching
While frozen in the mountains of brick,
And icicles of glass
But here I smell the rich blackness of earth,
And the green fragrance of the whispering trees
So turn the clocks back,
To when the stars were my streetlights,
And trees my homes;
The animals my brothers—not pets—
When drums made of animal hide were the disco,
And sex was never complicated by love
And a person could be willed by instinct alone
This is the character of my misery;
A truth too dark to ever see.
If I could go back, to an ancient day
The chains binding me would burn away,
And only the wind would make me sway
The woods a nest to call my home
The nature of my heartfelt loan
Nothing that man can ever be shown
