Poem of the Day

"New Leaf" by Angora Shade


Forget you think you know it
It’s time to go throw it
The stone that
skips across the water like
it’s glass
Tarnished
Well varnished
Lost into the fog 

with no sense or class
Forgotten
Now rotten
might have been rash

Ignore the fucks from yesterday
Give up the stupid games they play
The bullshit that
stinks up your
Oblivion
Buried
Ferried
Given over to the
deep sin
Forever
But never
Released but just
can’t win

Stand a little taller
Don’t let them make you smaller
Push back against
the envelope
Seal it
Feel it
Climb up on a
new rope
Berated
Frustrated
Plant a seed of
good hope.

Break upon a fresh wave
Tell them what you truly crave
Spotlight in the
bright sun
Centerfold
The untold
Baked until you’re more
than done
Delicious
Fictitious
Tell them that you’ve
just begun.
