Hearts and Whores by ~SweetSweetIrony:iconSweetSweetIrony:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Transgressive > Fixed


I have a handgun for a heart,
matte black and safely locked.
From one too many misfires,
its all clogged and blocked.

I've got lasers for eyes,
I'll burn it through your brain.
Look at me directly,
then you'll feel the pain.

I'm a total deviant,
I never was quite right.
I'd be one to walk off cliffs,
just to see the heights.

Trust me baby this is love,
though I doubt you'll live it through.
It's really not your fault,
you never had a clue.

'Cause I've got one hand on you,
and one between my legs.
Yeah lets play some games,
we'll just see who begs.

This one makes little sense even to me, which is saying a lot. The concept changed half way through it and it was written in the car on 4 hours of sleep.

Enjoy

:| I hate you. You write too well.

:P Anyway, onto the bitter compliments about how I wish I could write like you :D This was written on four hours sleep? In a car? :| Christ.

I like the feel to this poem. You have a really awesome way of writing. Almost bitter, maybe cynical, defiant and in some parts there seems to be a little bit of self indulgent insanity... And on the whole, amazing :D (If my description offends you, I'm sorry :/ I have a weird way of putting things)

So yeah, nifty! *Thumbs up*

Actually you basically hit my personality on the nose. Congratulations, you're the first one to really get it from one of my poems.

I am incredibly cynical and sarcastic, I'm working on reducing the bitterness, but it always shows up in my poetry. But if you really wanted to take the time and read through more poems...they're all written from experience so that may clear some things up.

Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.

Love Walked In.

I've read through several of your poems, and they all seem very powerful. The first stanza in this is especially good. I love the metaphor presented of bad experiences clogging the gun. Excellent poem.

Well there are obvious emotions that appear in your poems, you write in such a strong way that makes it hard not to see it. Maybe the reason you write so well is because you have been in the position of feeling these things. My poems are too written from experiences. Poetry is my way of telling the world how pissed off I am at certain things/people but in a less agressive, more productive way :)
I actually have read a lot of your poetry. I haven't commented on much because I'm a little bit of a lurker when it comes to commenting :D
