Wishes Granted
At 1:11 a.m. on 2001-11-24


Description: I believe this poem is about a guy who I had been hoping to have a date with whom I had met online, & then I found out that he had just gotten a girlfriend & had been lying to me the entire time. I used the rage from this to inspire a poem about my website at the time, which had the name of Wishes Granted, Souls Enchanted. Nice, eh?

If wishes were horses,

Then beggers would ride

If wishes came true,

He wouldn't have lied

Something so simple

Can tear me apart

Derail my train

Completely smash my heart

If wishes were horses,

And he hadn't lied,

My life would be perfect

And I wouldn't have cried

How long can my heart last

Until it catches up with my past

If wishes were horses,

Then beggers would ride.

Jaded Poet, Lonely in Company
. . . and a pen rests by the chalice, pull up a chair by this, the fire, drink long, the ink and wine are able, the script leaps from hand, into the pyre,
. . . yes, the bottle is half full, pull the cork and pour another, hide your eyes deep in the swallow, and we'll burn this script together,
. . . damn the feather, pour the ink, and let the ruin stain those lips, I beg and hope to share this hour, but those hands of yours, will never leave your hips.
By Jarday
