old poem
of my insanity

old poem
of an
ancient soul

are you
always tragic

for every time
I write

I fear
for my love
death

in the mystical
fire

in the sudden
rainbow

in that rain
from the flame

I have to see
to bleed out

I have to see
to hold in
what's left

and nothing else
matters

but it seems
everything
has to matter

so I am
blind now
in my inspiration

and the poem
is struggling

in the cement
meadow

as I drop
pennies
into the mouth

of an angel

and watch my
prayer
of words

go unanswered
like a riddle

made up
to fool god

Nice poem. I've read several of yours now, and it's very interesting to see how you lay them out.
