Jokes Told in my head

The Jokes Told
In
My Head.
×××××××××××××

Last NigHt..

I was a tatted
gut
shitting
Broken Candy  
Hearts

as
The Ghosts of Love
Laughed

at Jokes Her Eyes once
Told.

"I cannot give
You
The World Old
Flame!"

Or even a part..

(yet I'll show
You
ways to make it
fold.)

+

Today is 
A
Tragedy My
Head
Lived Yesterday...

(Staring into broken
Mirrors.)

Trying to
remember
how
To Pray,

but answered
only By
Life's Tears!

(Which 
shall melt
The
Future's Smile
away.)

+

And 
Now...

I
have Sore
Eyes

Dreaming
Of
A
Sacred
Sleep

The Halfway
Living
still
call Dead;

and
my
Heart

Forever
Breaks for
You
Dear!!

(though
it
Laughs at
Jokes told
In
My Head.)

Things not to say after half a night with some barroom angel

Things NOT
To say after
Half a night with
A bar room
AngeL:
×××13×××

Sorry about the
Wings.

I suffer this odd
Compulsion where
I
Like pluckiNg
The
Feathers  from
Pretty
Things,

and
sewing them
Into
Lovelier thoughts.

×
But
When you smile
1,000
LosT Nights
Sing!

(to a memory
Time Forgot. )

×

And
I
Didn't mean
To

Dump the
Ashtray in
My
Head

on the
Pristine floors
Of
Your Once
Clean Heart;

it
just works
like that
for the
Dead.

(Who drown
In
Oceans of
Light turned
Dark.)
