“I stared, motionless, before the mirror. As always, I stayed until I’m convinced that there is no glass, nothing, separating me from the room I see on the other side. I imagine that everything is different. Over there. Better. There are people, in that world, who I would like. But, like always, my hand hits that glass. I know that if I’d only waited just one more second…”

Dear Reader, Know, as you read this it doesn't matter. Stop now. There is absolutely no point. If this letter was added to every book ever published from now until a future unknown, or a copy of it was added to every computer in existence, it wouldn't matter. If this one letter influenced the whole of human evolution, each individual life from now until humanity ceases to exist, it still wouldn't matter. It seems every second of every day is spent trying to leave some sort of mark, like histo...

Gnawing at the necessity to see clearly beyond a horizontal image rising out of the murky screen screaming as a backlash against a sinking tide plunging into a reversal of agony lying in a cloud made of granite a field of decadence decaying inwards setting my insides searing a hole at the center of absently minded monograms tilted into perspective

sleep induced insomniac cannibals a beautiful blemish as a insolent third eye an apple on your head seducing a poisoned arrow whispering in braille that the world is blind self-sustained robot gods of an analogue future a self-portrait of what you never were is the mirror that is a doorway to where you can never be now no one won the televised freedom of terrible papercuts in the nuclear halo of half-life decay

He opens his eyes for the first time in days. The same white walls. No matter where he moves, always he is greeted by the same smoke stained white walled tomb. Overwhelming dullness. The mirror, shy and fearful, reflects more and more of the wall and less and less of anything that could be identified as living. He brushes his teeth, more of a ritual than anything. His jaws have become a mortar and pestle making fairy dust for aborted children and the kids who never get adopted and know it's n...

unilateral sedation sewn into the sky sleep coated dreams encasing my wake as if it were merely reality forest entombed in memory unknown wilting away like the day off that wasn't a day at all a splintered lycanthropy of noise decaying in membranes that never remembered the meaningless menagerie of lies littered on every street corner on every block of every building of every line ever traced at an intersection of last resorts standing, as if i was free i decide i choose because i am all of y...

Maybe keep it the same but have it say regret "boundless" or some other synonym for everywhere? also this is just from my perspective: fog inside, darkness outside, regret everywhere? eh?
Death is the quiet departure, separation of the āIā that perceives from the āiā that deceives. Best line ever. The poem over all is really good. in the last line you use elides and i think you mean eludes. I actually don't like the last two lines that much. I see what your trying to do, a play on words with i and deal but it makes the point of the poem less clear in my opinion. But yeah keep writing, you are really good.
"maybe drugs are the horrible truth that have opened my eyes to the meaningless endeavor named so ironically, life. maybe they changed my brain and made me unable to follow a linear existence, made me fall ever down this spiral into infinite nothingness. its not that its so bad seeing life this way, it just gets lonely for us few. the fact that almost all of the rest of the populace has deluded themselves into thinking their little victories are anything more then self contrived goals to achi...
For once I actually know what one of your poems is about, related to your personal life. You almost always stray away from anything this outright emotional in so far as your relationships are concerned. "it seems some sort of unconscious realization that at some point i would hit the peak and from there it would all be downhill. that remembering all the awesome things that happened would be a ritual necessary to relive, over and over again." i hope you see what i mean.
