Discovered poem-----Less for my sanity

I recently came across several of my infamous, but occasionally not-too-shabby, attempts at poetry.

So here are a few of the ones I've found.


Less For My Sanity

Less for my sanity,
more for Humanity. . .
Get me off to someplace that's
good, golden and green.

And do forgive these breaks I take
away from my own head
--that aches--
And also please forgive these flaws
flayed ALL OVER me.

Forgive these warnings
I DON'T heed,
Forgive this oft INSATIABLE need
For help I want but
eternally refuse to take.

And please forgive this life I lead,
spent ever-searching for reprieve,
Learning to bend just
SO I WON'T BREAK.

And for some strange reason. . .
shook me straight to my CORE
. . .seeing you in your hat, and
--Imagine that!--
. . .said you were looking for something MORE.
