Poetry: Bitter

Rushing

Rushing rushing
To expedite the
Process of getting
Through this life
Without the constant
Memories of how
Or why I did.
No pleasures,
Too soft for me.
No painfulness,
It's too rock
Hard for me.
To too hard a
Heart, I cling.
I don't want to
Feel anything.
I want to cast my sail
And glide effortlessly
In and out of one
Place to another on a sea
Of nameless faces
And faceless names.
If I can't see him
How much harder to
Remember is he?
Nothing, nothing
Is what I long to feel.
Indeterminately I will
Be rushing, rushing
Through the cortex of
Forgetfulness,
My life.

    It is everywhere but in our own minds;
    Therefore it only accomplishes to confound
    All the many

    Burnt

    Your shadow is a whore's:
    a sinuous silhouette
    that melts before you,
    that
    sultry whisper,
    stuck in thin indigo wind.

    by Cate Stewart

    Bitter is the taste in my mouth
    when the facts are obvious
    but no one shouts them out.

    If I breathed in the scent of firewood,
    bitter
