More poem sharing
I can't copy and paste the tasteI began it with you in my lobe;
frontfully foremost
the frontier I almost loved
I left the middle
-
Left it
  Left it
     [Left it like a hot tax bracket]
Sacked it like half
of a ramen packet
salty and foiled
in the waste basket
-
You ended in my memories;
A futuristic vagrancy
Vibrant in your mysteries
A gallery so dastardly
your deft display;
of mastery
and bastard-born capacity
at missing inconsistencies

Maybe you will like this poem:
xoxothe curd, the cluster
the cloyingly coy
string of syrup from the mouth
trying hard to suckle on my wounds
before the bruises bloom
starting with
a nip of teeth with cognizance
this will hurt a little but enough
shrewdly marked
not anymore the longing taste
not a warning but a warming up
the toxicant, the choke
tickling on the way down
drifting drunk
drowning cries in the dark

I actually started reading the poem out loud in an intentionally heavy meter and it's amazing.

Prayers Hurt the Ears of Our PuppeteersPress me - pared by pitch lines
burning beneath searing, slicing ink
amendment headings, heedless shredding
needless schemes sync and stink
Cheeks sop up spit, shouted from the silenced
voices stifled
spoken woken rifles shriek
Abject, abject...only lowly objects
we drink our bile in the streets
-
Evil - updrafts, born in buzzards wings
The carrion, they ferry
cold cartels of skins;
clipping our colors before they clash
Bodies stowed for savage shows
minions made of molting pinions
piercing us with hollow pinions;
mind your ties to those marionettes

A poem you might enjoy.

A poem you might like:
kernelcan i redo my skin. pluck it   and it’s mites   my feeling
mites on mites.     up from the bed   why
when i sleep i am swarming   as  a cyst boiling
from the bottom of the   pot to embed myself
in my shoulder   blade. it’s mites    my feeling
instrumentalizing     my immune system
until every pore is full. vitrified    and murmur.
to maneuver each kernel loose so    many teeth.
can i redo my skin.    lather concave surfaces
with isopropanol and scrub    with kleenexes to
the point of    ripping. tissue    undifferentiated
from dermal debris.    can i redo my skin.    my
skin    thumbtacks breaching the surface
like grass.   can i redo it.    bile waiting to erupt
from beneath    adipose froth. nauseous   drunk
and   dunk my skull in a bucket   of diatomaceous
earth.   only afte

I think you might like this poem:
year-old low-res can-did as-the beata-beatrixyear-old low-res mid-performance
can-did as-the beata-beatrix

imbibe a uranium-laced tincture and
metabolize it like any other gulp of air
when it's electrified / i’ve been
galvanized / at this hypnotic juncture
where i reach out like a son’s son to
stroke my own face with fingers /
made of splinters inter alia and / now
wait like a kore/kouros paralytic in
the frieze / made of marble without
scents of shells or sounds of selves as
i was / a few hundred million years
back throbbing / in place another
silurian hyperbola / as i was a day or
two or month ago post/ante having
severed my stone frenulum on /
impulse infrared / fait accompli / my
tongue that radiates inward / to
ontovoid / or that part/whole of you
in me / that part/hole of you in me /
where the lexicon slime accretes / it’s
the sensuous self / svelte singer /
with warm shoulders / but no sweat /
only energy / to propriocept

Oddly enough I was never fond of school. I would get bored and goof off. 
If I became a teacher, every kid would be how I was as a student.

I remember having to lie and claimed I had a degree in Graphic Design and a bachelor's in Art because the only position left on my last year was "Art Director" The entire Summer consisted of me doing things on a whim and being pulled aside by the end of every week getting told stuff like "The only reason we can't fire you is because..." 
 The campers enjoyed it though. 
If I had to choose to teach anything it would probably be mathematics, but everything I learned about math is through being an autodidact.

Hey regal, I need your help please. I keep trying to submit one of my works to the gallery ,but it keeps submitting it to journal. I looked at the deviant help ,but that didn't really help.

Regal-Pinion In reply to Readeroffate [2017-02-02 04:00:37 +0000 UTC]

If it's text based, click on this link -> www.deviantart.com/submit/devi… (it'll send you to the "Submit Art" page). On the page click ✎ Enter text and (while I discover how impossible it is to give simple directions) copy/paste whatever you typed. 
Then select its medium and whatever category comes into it. 
If this comes off as condescending it's because telling basic directions is a lot harder than it should be. 
Lastly if you didn't ask me this question, but a spambot hacked you... I advise you change your password.
 Hopefully I helped.
