POET'S CORNER
Of Blood and Emotion
Shit!!!
Times like this I can't even stand to be around
Myself
Times like this
It feels like Cyko-Myko Muir is singing to me
About me
Or I am singing through him
"I feel like shit I'm sorry to say
Do you fucking think I like
Feeling this way
I feel like shit
What do you expect me to do
I feel like shit
Deja vu"
And I just want to grab my skateboard
And go
Screw it all
And punish myself for all the fuck-ups
And punish the world for being there
And not giving a shit
And I won't be relaxed
Until I see my blood escaping from my knees
And elbows
Until I feel proud
And drip blood onto the concrete
Wearing scabs and blood-stained T-shirts
Telling the world
"Yeah, I'm a loser but name one thing you love
Enough to bleed for you bunch of yuppie suits"
See
Never fear anything you feel
Pain is a feeling
Fear is a feeling
Exhilaration is a feeling
Love is a feeling
But always fear being beaten so bad
And being hurt so often that all feeling leaves
Always fear numbness
Make yourself feel
Like the dying man in Blade Runner who drove a
Nail through his hand
To keep feeling in his body
Feeling ANYTHING is better than feeling nothing
Make it happen
Make it real
And we're a strange breed
Who simply likes our outside to reflect our inside
-Leonard Poage, Portsmouth, OH
Souled Out
Jamie Thomas, Jeremy Wray,
Steve Berra, Tony Hawk,
Sold out to rollerbladers,
What a bunch of cocks.
How
can you live a lie
I think you
all must die,
Sold out to K2,
How could you,
Money grubbing rollerbladers,
8-wheeled sellout snakers,
An alliance with the enemy,
It's anything for money,
Gimme, gimme, gimme.
