Whispering Thoughts
Perry Waddell

today
school was didactic
trepidations were
floundering my neck
was taut from my
ventricles pounding
I had a thought but
it just left me thinking
carousel of love wasn't
worthy my tinkering
all the tasty people yet
I need to eat nothing
just breathe the blue
aura of gregarious
suffering we wish
we could quell this
quest for approval
reduce everyone to
fell-good song drivel this
end of life comes
fast if you're waiting
the Christians tell me
to be ready for that
gale thing I'm not
concerned about this
whole death thing
I'm not concerned
about this whole
death thing
if
you understand me then
why aren't you leaving
if I knew you may then
why aren't I weeping
I'm thinking the best
thing will caress
the dead thing
the dead thing is
best when you
leave out the
dressing the dead
thing is best when
you leave out the
dressing is this now the
end or is this the
beginning
