    Author's Note: any level of positive, or negative feeback is welcome. Please, if you read to the end, say something coz im losing the mojo to put pen to paper.. Unless you wanna argue contextual particulates, then fuck off. I wrote the shit, I know what I meant to convey.

    Thankies.

    "To Colorado"

    A perfect synonym for contrary;
    Is you.
    Not quite contemptuous,
    Not quite contrite.
    You sit on the precipice of this
    And that like a high wire.
    You're the acrobat.

    Always falling in the middle
    With all of your conviction.

    Each day boils through your veins,
    Bleeding down to sweaty night
    Despite the snow on the ground
    And frost in the sky.

    Soon!
    You proclaim of your End,
    But always finding your unable to say
    When.

    Your high-ground is unmatched,
    Though perhaps the secret knowledge
    That even you dont meet
    The standard you've set
    Is what spurs your rage,
    And fuels your lust for demise.

    I don't know how,
    How to convince you it's alright.
    How to persuade you to see
    The unattainability of what you seek.
    To prove that it makes you more a Man
    And not less, to accept these realities.

    Just as you cannot see,
    Nor accept me as i am
    So too, do you indomitably judge yourself,
    Deficiency.

    While all around,
    And every day,
    The universe cuts you breaks
    To balance the shit it gave.
