The curtain opens,
the poet is sad,
so he throws an off smile
tries to joke.

I'm actually pretty empty -
at least there is pretty in there
(ha-ha.)
Every word has gone out, they just
left me behind
(I bet they're throwing a party.
Right behind Betelgeuse.
Damn those insensitive fools.)

...Oh!

Enough of the drama:
insensitive knocked
and she's drunk;
I just might make her stay.
(You know how it goes, you let one in,
they all come:
in-whatever-comes-to-your-mind's
will be dancing around my apartment.)


Indisputably, all this inflated my intellect
incomprehensible instruments
inebriate- hold that; confuse me.
Now, lets settle down, be intestinal,
no! What does that even – incarnadine!
Infidels! Stop that at once, inconvenience-
Stop!
That's it!
Shut up!

No more of you immature in-s,
you imbecile impotents!
Your impish incline to impertinence –
Argh!
Now the im-s have come in
I can't get them out!
Impoverished incumbent!
I don't want to-
crack

there is silence

a voice rises up again, shouting:

Instruments, intolerate indecisiveness! Informatively, (in)domination is imminent! In-
So that was your plan all along, now,
wasn't it?
Sweep me away after making a battle-plan
back behind Betelgeuse,
forging conspiracies?
Too good I keep all my
narrative voices
clean of in-/im-'s at all times.

Inacceptable!
Don't tell me what kind of words I can use,
also, I won't waste more time now, be gone:

The curtain opens,
the poet is happy
he throws an off smile
and tries to impress.
Breathes in, then halt, shouts:


Damn! Now I used one!

And after an unpleasant pause,
The End.
A battle of powers between a poet and his words.

I actually laughed while writing this so maybe someone else will like it too ;D

You know. Sometimes I think you're lying to me. Your writing makes it seem like English is your first language, and yet its not. Which is so... so.. astoundingly amazing. You write with so much grace and precision and complete and utter meaning that I cant help but believe you are so much more than you are letting us see.

Sometimes I wish I could see your dreams. Be apart of you while you write these, just to see how you work. How you manage to do this.

arrrrg Benerhard I swear to god Ima hug you so hard.
