Life’s Little Misdirections 🥀🦋

Truths And Allegory

Tell me your truths
and where mine should apply
I've used them as patches
on these dry eyes

Share your secrets
and what I should divulge
mine trapped in Tupperware
sealing a dull head

You seem to know it all
Your easy demeanor instructs
how I should behave
repose in your presence

Any last words before parting?
You have better things instead?
Drop your knowledge like bombs
Demolish the already dead

What sport in that?
I have a few more coins
to toss in this parking meter
My car idles at your walk

I write poems that make no sense
It's a cathartic, rambling word soup
I snicker as you struggle discern
meaningless words like allegory
