<\/p>\n

i think the world is
\ndivided into two camps
\nthose who want to
\nprotest
\nand those
\nwho want to
\nsleep<\/p>\n

i want to
\nprotest
\nwhile i sleep
\nconquering
\nquiet terror
\nat 3am<\/p>\n

the reality is
\ni’m just planting seeds of
\ntemptation and chance
\nslowly distancing
\nexclamations of fire
\nunder an artificial sun<\/p>\n

heart dance
\nin an impulsive puzzle
\ndesire penetrates a depressed light
\nas divided souls
\nmarch towards moments
\nof human welfare
\nuncertain and empty
\nthe soldiers of moonlight
\nlaugh at all these
\nclassical distractions<\/p>\n

never surrender to civility
\nresist all ism’s
\nthe energy of revolution
\nlies hidden
\nin networks of love<\/p>\n

as for me
\ni’ll continue to exist
\nin the pornography of
\nartistic creation
\nfed on a diet
\nof eccentric words
\nreluctant and
\nsemi-insane<\/p>\n
