Like A Branded Note
Selflessness is best
But insanity is contagious...
Where friendship disembarks
A whole ship of fools...
Better to jump overboard
Than to cast your lot
Among those whom evil has caught
In dirty pool...
My bay be solitude
Cast off without fortitude
The night remains my harbor friend
Where daytime ceases not to pain...
Wings without feathers cease to flap
Lacking impetus-they waxen flat
A conscience inside a bottle afloat
And my life rolled up
Like a branded note...
