it fired me up. it gave me the thrills.
i walked over to walk up to again.
i passed by a thousand times.
i hammered in the nails in the coffin and buried my past.
the rust and the worms inside the clayey me; catalyzed by the inability to hold gave way,
gave way and the ghosts returned to haunt the glee.
the damning recluse's existence marred with self-induced misery.
the virgin’s fucked up without the penetration.
raped off of the music...of the dance of the soul.
i laugh at the mirror...i laugh at god's mockery.
embracing the corpses of ethics i slayed all my way.
i sign parchments of confessions as i lay there dead.
whatever you let go of, don't ever let go of your ethics...because it's just the ethics that make you....a set of limiting rules, as I say... :)
ReplyDeletei swore by them; now i don't swear at all;
ReplyDeletethe light flickered for a while, it is steadfast now
=P
you slay ethics, there is nothing more left to you, nothing more left about you that is human enough. you'd rather lay there dead.
aha! i just wanted to argue the other side....! you are wrong...a man can forge himself anew if he wants to..! :)
ReplyDeleteforgetting what you were is the wrong bit....because by forgetting where you got from where you are, you might reach the same place again....which would mean you're only progressing...negatively! :)
point taken. =)
ReplyDeletejust for argument's sake refer the comment before =P
gah poetry again... (not that i am in a position to criticise it considering that i know squat about it)
ReplyDeleteP.S the last few lines reminded me of evanescene's 'everybody's fool'... weird huh ?
Late Again. Sorry, it was uttarayan today so was flying kites.
