Cut the Losses

Funny Poems

Part 1 of 3

Ah! love can be harsh

(if it is not working);

loosen the cord

it is best to make

a new life alone

(than to die slow)

less knots in the

veins

more marrow in the

bones.

We are only eyes

and mouth

a body beneath

a sky—.

Empty are some of

us in this

world

(it is the way it is

the way they will

live and die):

like an empty jar

with only air,

no substance!

We are all headed

beneath the earth:

skin, eyes, everything.

raised in due time

for heaven or hell;

cut the losses!

Part 2 of 3

Escape, before you

fall, sink

into a hole of

silence

(so deep it can be);

rocks will cover the:

mind, and eyes—;

thus, the soul

will have no light

to see…

so, cut your losses

please

before it’s too late.

Part 3 of 3

One thing you should

know.

I used to look out

my window,

see you

near in the distance

far in mind.

Well, time has passed

little by little we

heal.

No need for anymore

ungratefulness

cut the losses

(what you see is not

love,

rather madness).

One can become

mad you know:

so

cut the losses soon.

Life passes by

quickly,

like roots

we grow old and

deep

to where one

cannot remember

things.

cut the losses before

the wind blows

you down…

blows you away

(like ashes in an

open urn).

In real love nothing

is extinguished or

forgotten.

Dirty love burns

like a fire

marching towards

the end of life.

Ah, for love’s sake

cut the losses

(remember: once honored

once betrayed,

third comes the fool).

Go on marching

stay on the road

love will find you.
