Learnings

I’m your tutor
Your doubter
And so much more
I’m ruder
I’m the shouter
We’ll see what’s in store
I bypassed the highway
Like some clogged arteries
The dashes on the road
like the ashes in your eyes
Is that a vein?
a pebble or just a stye
I’m a rebel without a notion of a cause
Maybe I just wanna die
Your wounds are oozing but I’ve run out of gauze
and that’s a shame well that’s a damn shame
But the more you complain and longer I stand the quicker
I go insane
I’m your tutor
Your doubter
And so much more
I’m ruder
I’m the shouter
We’ll see what’s in store
What’s in store but a bore
A conflict
A crass compromise
that complicates
Until the pores of my skin themselves
Spun pills towards you grin like a pinball machine
They ricocheted all the way
To grasses so green
Your tutor is tired
Your doubter is exhausted
And so much more

with a few tweaks and a catchy tune, that could be an awsome song

...

maybe not

but i'm sure you could turn some of your other poems into songs

hmm it could go into your book
how you started your song writing carreer as a poet

oh the Glory, the Fame, the Women?


oh well do as you will


it was just a thought
