Like Light

hot dog hot dog hot diggity dog

did you know that thought is a substance?

ah.... yes indeed it is

formed and very physical

forgotten, her origins

a thing formed from

also kept from,

that sweet a*s existence

it's a physical thing

like light

everything has properties

even fools and liars

dickholes and a******s

usurpers and patriots (same old thing)

on a dirty rock

through a cosmic jungle

biting alone

eating mosquitos for blood

my survival has no pulse

still

i am here

resilient and multi colored

like light

and I once heard a man asking for change say something to me like....

"sunlight is the greatest disinfectant"

"just 3 bucks 'n got me a 40"

a different kind of disinfectant

there is a thought that goes "when we forget we are lost"

that means something i swear

though i can't really remember

or at the very least

i chose not to

at this time

do ya feel me?

can you think of me?

that would mean something

the knowing without meeting

like light

it's exhilarating

unique

like a waterfall

of starlight 

in verb, vowel, and noun

etc...

I enjoy the challenge of your poems! Often asking me to get out of my head and let my own creative thought process fly. That's super dope when a piece can do that. I have to admit I liked the opening line mainly because it reminded me of Curtis (my son) he used to sing that line all the time from a children's show I can't remember the name of right now.
I love how this flits off in many directions but remains cohesive by design, yeah that's some talent right there...well in my opinion anyway.

Sorry, I offer you nothing in terms grammar, punctuation or any of those other 'proof ready' things I'm terrible at it myself. R xo

Thanks anyway. I got a little lazy with this one, it shouldn't really even be posted. But it feels like it's done enough.... and well, like I said before.... I'm getting lazy.

[Davidgeo]

Is that Curtis in your profile pic?

[aLittlePain]

Oh well we all get lazy and that's okay.

Yes that's Curtis :)

Humans aren't lazy enough sometimes... my cat seems a great deal happier than me and he doesn't do s**t.

Curtis is a cute kid.

Haha I couldn't agree more, though ones personal hygiene is where I draw the line. My cat Apollo is the same if she was any more lazy she'd be dead.

Thank you I think he rather cute, though all mothers say that about there children.
