I defy you, depression!

[stoopbeck]

Trivialities trip lightly along the tongue.
That trollop, time, traipsing through,
tramping, treading on my tongue and teeth and lips.
Time taunts.

I am alone and
words fall slip-sliding roughshod
over tongue-teeth-lips and out.
Words flow.

In company, though,
my tongue is blocked,
teeth crumbled, crushed under weighty words,
lips stitched shut, threads of
convention-cowardice threaded through

Nothing left to do

but post a crappy poem on my lj.

I feel a lot less mopey since being on Paxil, despite some weird side effects. So, if you think you might ever be having some of the same feelings I was, maybe talk to me about it. I don't want anyone else to have to feel like that. *snuggle-wuggles*

You are amazing. If you write a book of poetry for your senior seminar, I want a signed copy! That applies to anything else creative you might do...

You want a copy of my book of poetry? They finally printed it! It's not quite as fun as the above poetry, but it's still interesting.
