Message Sent To Friends That I Wish To Keep.

After careful consideration
of your performance
as a friend
in 2010,
I have decided to extend
your contract
for another year.
Try not to
fuck it up.

[please note: this was a generic message sent through online discussion boards and is a notorious quote regarded in the general public, it just so happened to have an abundant poetical base]

Beach colours

Stale light green.

Champagne white.

Translucent purple.

Isolated patch of rain.

Flat water plain

Iridescent blue.

Yet still I thought of you.

Indifference

These moonlit seas
glint in vain.
In my stubborn sight.
For I am oblivious.
Of the strain of feeling.

With thoughts deep-rooted
in my heart.
Like dark mangroves
subduing moonlight.
Branches
inundated at high tide
gasping
a low and ceaseless sigh.

This full moon
is a white ghost
and terribly upset.
Dragging the sea after it
like dark crime
to the sharp edges of night.

All melody of this nocturne sea
is not for me.
These crashing waters compose
the piano monotone.
Fading
to deaf ears.

Somewhere two lovers walking up
the long beach,
together
may justify the moon.

But as for me
like dark mangroves.
I do not hear
these crashing waters.
And I am blind
to the glinting
of these moonlit seas.

Facebook No More

Gazing at the Facebook blue.
Time and time again; through and through.
Like searching an empty fridge.
With no contents, continually abridge.

Fumed, spiritous mists inhabit this place.
Yesterday's pizza, a status update.
An absence of milk shall procure
the obscure event invitation to join the human race.

While Facebook is no door
of social development.
It is a face in its own right:
Blue as a lap dancer and gaudily hazed.
You walk out of the stripper joint dazed.
It is a book in its own right:
Dragging you back after it like a dark crime.
Shoot the sheriff and the deputy will chase you double time.
Facebook is no door.
Facebook no more.

I stare at the sea of trepidation, in a ship of imagination.
Facebook is no door; Facebook no more.
Examine the fridge's inhabitation, cold, empty fixation.
Facebook is no door; Facebook no more.
