A Single Cloud In The Nighttime Sky

There was a single cloud out in the sky tonight. It sat alone, held aloft by nothing more than its own desire to be there. I wondered what it was doing there, with no cloud friends to keep it company. It rested amongst the few visible stars, and was positioned across the sky from the moon, which shone brightly with no curtain of clouds to block its light.

The air was still and I drove along, listening to the radio. But all the while, I wondered, does this cloud realize it is alone? Does it know that all the other clouds have gone to bed? It's night and it's dark, and I don't believe it belongs there.

And yet, there it stayed, small and puffy, so beautiful in its wonder. It must be lonely, though, to be a single cloud in the nighttime sky.

Tattoo

So, when I have money, I'm getting this tattoo:

Now I've Got An Eyepatch (And It's Jaunty!)

If you thought that it would bring me down,
Losing one eye to your society of madness,
Don't think for one second that you've won
Because now I've got a jaunty eyepatch
And I'm a fucking pirate, with you at the edge of my plank.
Even with one eye, why am I the only one who saw that coming?
Now turn around and jump for me, because I'm kinda busy these days ...

Half-Blind, Not Quite Deaf

At arm's length, extended fully, I see it there
Irony, I say, as what I gaze upon with my one good eye
Is the other that I just stabbed out

Tired of looking upon the world that so harshly torments me
I limit my vision, as the people around me have limited theirs
Hoping to connect with those whom I don't understand
I realize that it has nothing to do with their eyes
And everything to do with their minds

I suppose I understand them now
More fully do I see the differences between us
And all it cost me was an eye ...

I am so glad I had two of them to begin

A Trust Misplaced

You, the friend (trusted)
And me, the fool (trusting)

Did you think I never noticed how you snickered behind my back? I could feel your eyes laughing as I turned away, us both so content in our friendship (me, content only in its existence; you, content in its benefits). I know what you think of me. I know what you say. I know the insidious thoughts that roam about in the dark recesses of your mind as you smile at me, your fake grin plastered onto that false face.

You think I'm a fool, but that's why I can turn around and laugh at you. Because, though I know you have two faces, I can see them both for what they are - pale complexions of a lonely person, with a sad set of eyes and ears that see and hear the world in a way that is so useless and selfish that it will never bring you any of the joys and happiness that you could otherwise find.

You, the fool (losing yourself)
Me, the friend (being myself)

Cause to Celebrate

I, on occasion,
Find cause to celebrate
The simple notion
That life is beautiful
In every single way

It brings me to my knees
My overwhelming joy
(Chest tightening and
I struggle to breath)
How the hell can you not notice?

When this world
(In its beauty)
Is killing me ...
