Why I’m a Blast at Parties

Contributed by blackevar on Thursday, 30th December 2004 @ 07:53:36 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



Writing teenage angst in my late 20’s,
Listening to The Smiths,
With acne too,
God help me!
Has anything changed?
I was unhappy then,
Much as I am unhappy now,
Living in inertia,
One step forward,
One step back,
They say time heals,
They’re wrong,
It merely passes,
Slowly and painfully,
Like urine
Through a swollen urethra,
Do you think I’m depressed?
I’m not really,
Just aware,
There’s a difference,
Depressives are deluded,
They Dream forlornly of a better life,
I know that there isn’t,
I’ve checked,
Looking left and right,
What can I say?
I can accept the logic of the green cross code,
And yet the oncoming traffic still looks so attractive

I would have never believed something with a title as this, as seemingly simple and free formated can be so...intriquing. As I was reading, I felt it. The last line is haunting and beautiful. Hey, I am one of those "depressives" you speak of and I am as far as being deluded as possible, and more shocked by this world and its ongoing nonsense, and yet in me there is still a spark somewhere, because I have felt eternity and happiness before...it exists...it is out there somewhere...I believe in it. Anyway, beautiful poem, in its own way.

Just to note the green cross code in Ireland is a way to teach Irish kids how to cross the road safely.

Cheers man
Was just trying to imply everyone should be deppresed and anyone who wasn't just wasn't paying close enough attention!

Thanks for reading!
