isolation

by Artur Desruisseaux

get drunk

get stupid

get stoned

write about shit that nobody cares about

but the only thing is

you are not informed

man

baby

girl

that you write like an asshole

and nobody worth their salt

cares

about

you

or

what you write about,

you are lost

and forgotten

done

why bother?

a cat scratches his or her nails

in the middle of night

a baby dies

you can buy a new car

move

get married

or change jobs

and that wont matter,

your kids might have more kids

and that wont matter

cause

little babies still die

and cancer kills

and aids

hates everyone

who likes to fuck-

you're just like those

afraid of the sun

except you act

like an asshole

and that's what I don't like about you

you're human

and that makes me sick

just skin on a skull

with eyes

and stupid lips

just a thought

in the middle of the night

depressed and

waiting

for the end.

What are you looking for in comments? Do you really want critiques or are you just reaching out? I just read "How" to read poetry and would have to butcher this with a pencil I'm afraid, with those instructions fresh in mind.

I think the motivation is pretty easy to discern.
