Late Bloomer

To the rocky deep isolate
Blind, black sheets obscure and obfuscate
A chain of jaundiced eyes
Riven down a tree
Search me:
For bank-card figures
For what's not my business
I'll flee expeditiously
I need to feel needed like my father felt
When I don't feel needed, I falter, flail
A drag to hemorrhage power this way
I feel me tunneling into holidays
Late bloomer's bell remained unrung
In schoolyards and in banquet halls
I was building to something all along
Now a tower's wrought from mud
And it's not your concern
The strike of a ceiling hurt
(((I need to feel needed or I leave the rails)))
(((It's unbecoming but that's the way that I feel)))
(((I need to feel needed or I go postal)))
(((It's unbecoming but that's the way that I feel)))

Nobody's Bridge

A wedge of planet cleaved in two
'Tween them, a jeweled pool
Who could unite your shadow-self?
You never can tell
A bridge that no one can possess
Bears, balances
The manuscript
That no scrupulous agent
Would touch
Contains us
Untie your ties
Put apologies and cleverness aside
Kill all slyness
It's hard to be unseemly
Won't you try?
Deal in for a multiverse of pain
Name it, ask its age
Ask of it questions:
"What are you?"
and "What are you not?"
The bridge that no one may possess
Is dense
It's how I know you're like sisters
Giving spaces
Untie your ties
Put apologies and cleverness aside
Kill all slyness
Collide with cryingness
Oh-whoa
