we're so unlike, we could be twins, which does not even make much sins, but that's just how we roll 'round here: shoot from the hip, then pop a beer

let us look deeply into our own blindness, examining deeply everything we can't see; for the sources of our problems are many, but we remain convinced, none of them are us

people who know me, know that i'm a crashing bore; i prate on endlessly -- i'm not quite sure what for -- i cure insomnia, i think, with sentences prolific: and i know some can soothe with words, but mine are soporific

they all called him a monster, for having scales and spikes; then went back to their safety zones of pages, views, and likes but he was not a monster -- he was in fact, refined -- but words can be most harmful when they are least defined

Wow! Lovely poems accompany intriguing art 🙂
Thank you!
To the voice of this poem, it indeed has a soothing effect. I wanted to challenge it for a drivel, but lets not get super excited. And lovely art, (mathematical) scales, and spikes.
We can all occasionally use more spikes. 🙂
I love these and the artwork is fantastic!
