I said "I love you" hypothetically, but minus the quotation marks

It started this way
You said hi
I said hello
And then the imaginary dialogue continued without quotation marks from that point on for artistic integrity and consistency's sake
I was never sure when what you were saying was really being said and when it was just my internal monologs
But that's how we fell in love
At least that's what I told you
But I'm not actually sure
If that was outloud.
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

Dragon scales

Dragon scales
iridescent, luminescent, pleasant
as it shone under the
light of a big
hoard of gold.
Dragon scales
coruscating, invigorating, fluttering
as the big beast woke up
and shook sleep from
its head.

I am so sad😭 I was not going with my brain
When I said what you wanted me to say
I wish I was honest
I wish I was interesting
I wish I was able to make you feel more free

But honestly
Honestly I was younger then
I was childish
I did not ŦoŔĞĔŤ ßÚŤ

I ČÁŃ ßĔ Á ßĔŤŤĔŔ ĤÚMÁŃ

I'm a nerd
you're a nerd

it's a nerd
candy is yummy, especially nerds.

i. there are only five ways to turn in a circle;
and this isn't one of them

ii. _________ half a wing of a bumble-bee
------------- and i have no clue how to fly

iii. What might the sun be, if not an infinite loop of light / if only
has anyone ever asked her, or have we all only assumed?

iiii. ________ you're not making any progress here
------------ in fact, you've only just arrived

iiiii. at the beginning of time and space and light and dark
they say, everything has an end / if only we were quick enough to chase the light

i. _________there are only five ways to turn in a circle;
------------- and this is only one of them
you should know i am a time traveler &
there is no season as achingly temporary as now
but i have promised to return

of course that's the heart of the matter
we've only begun this poem half-way through a thought
so you're probably lost before
we've even begun
trust me though
i can paint a wall with evergreen branches
peaking out between your rib-cage
arranged into a pine-needle web
breathing into a forest
that has been conveniently
set on fire
for no reason except an imagery aside
to distract you from the lack of continuity
or beginning
or ending
and that is poetry-enough.

I am a tomato.
Bright, red, fruit.
On the supermarket display --
artificially sprayed
with water droplets.
All I do is wait to be bought
and slowly rot
until the shop owner replaces me
with a red plastic ball.

Water

The water is wet

The water ripples

Out comes a duck

The duck says hello

The duck says goodbye

The duck drowns

Goodbye duck

Why are you here

You long-legged freak?

You’re not supposed to be in my house

You long-legged freak.

Stop bouncing around on the walls

You long-legged freak.

You have chosen death,

You long-legged freak

the roses are red,
and the violets are blue,
I really hate poetry,
and now so do you.

all the words are dumb,
and the rhymes are lame,
I'd rather do anything else,
than play this stupid word game.

Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
