 The Poet's Last Pens Rated:
E
 The last poems I will likely write. Some are unfinished.

Here's some stuff I have NOT been working on. With these last efforts, I attempt to close out the diaries and notebooks full of creative writing attempts and any other musings hiding in the margins.

Words I've penned lie herein:

"Building, swelling fears restrict
hearts in these cage-like chests..."


from
"Careful Not To Sing (Censored)

"Untethered,
vagrant liberty takes
me, dead in your street..."


from
"Vagrant Liberty

"My desire was my sin,
and you reeled me in,
only to cast me aside."


from
"Inside The Dying Spark

"Veins thick with humility,
spilt upon the stolen ground.
Defiled amid the defiled..."


from
"Custer Like Me (Forsaken)





"Time is but an empty space and
this pier has become a quiet place."



I began experimenting with poetry in the final days. I was inspired by poets like Billy Collins and John Updike. My focus on contemporary poetry was an attempt to bring me out of my complacency, unsatisfied with my goals as a writer. The prevailing conditions of my life, health and other circumstances have me contemplating the worth of continuing at this juncture.
