 Finding The Flood - Poems by Jeremy Joel

ECTOMORPH (BRUSH 'TILL YOU BLEED)



Slow motion solitude
Rusted, naked
Gaze into the mirror
Disgusted, wasted


Extinguish volcanoes
You want to be seen
Daily devices
Brush ‘till you bleed


You've never looked skinnier
Paper-thin they say
Vanish when sideways
Metabolism to blame


Malnourishment and calculations
Protein and carbohydrates
Spoons of grape sand
All the weight-gainer shakes


Eat as inspired, oatmeal and meat
Repeat as desired, hairdo and teeth
Invincibility done quite convincingly
With a discount Gold Card at G.N.C.


Creatine wasn't intended for saddened critical thinkers
Just self-centered single guys without intellect or stature
A fine accompaniment for the accomplished drinker
It won't overcome the shortcomings of egotistical disasters


God's will, never favors
Bitter enemies are innocent strangers
Parading peacocks
Sidewinders hissing
Hard lessons taught
Their laughing and kissing
Sitting ducks with bull's eyes
Please tell me your sign
Does your worst-case scenario
Look better than mine?
Am I another shallow replication?
The aftereffect of intoxication
Is Frankenstein dead
Or has he never felt more alive?
Is it morally unacceptable to flourish in this lie?
Caterpillars by day
Are butterflies at night  


Outside's borrowed, inside's rejected
Vanity's swallowed and sometimes injected
"Sports nutrition" for the diet of sex
Brush ‘till you bleed and spit out your innocence
