Negative Image

by Rich   May 21, 2004


Over,
Under;
Outside,
In.
Triumph,
Blunder;
Good deed;
Sin.

Seeing clear,
With eyes scarred shut.
Breathing deeper,
With every cut.
Take every failure,
Deep into heart.
Feed it and bleed it,
To tear me apart.

One more time,
Let's hear it again.
Speak before you think,
Put paper to pen.
Jump the gun,
Say what you feel,
Live through your eulogy
And throw up your last meal.

Pessimistic;
Faultless.
Optimistic;
Hopeless.

These are the thoughts
Of a negative mind.
Selfless honour;
Selfishly kind.
