Late nights in Los Angeles
Somewhere on the West
cocktails and glamour
cosmopolitan glossy
of outfits and poses
Hollywood
with its faulty romance
Endorphins promises
reality disregard
unacknowledged
A tattered dress
A shoes of the moment
Downtown East side
an industrial complex
built off isolation
A swath of brutalism
Desires exiles
More bang
than a bump
prescription and scripture
Of never living once
Across these regional lines
A hunt for one thing alone
A quality of extraordinary delights
Beauty
was captivating
At first for a little while
It didn’t sustain me longer than
my nights of of endless spirals
I always was searching for something more
Another beauty more potent to implore
Beauty was an addiction
all that ever mattered
I begged to divorce the mundane
I was destined for
Thoughts of life surpassing
ones beauty
Ever inching towards
opening wide
better doors
I hunger
I hurt
Manic was the purest of aesthetic
My sorrows
so shallow
Was it ever done without surprises
He didn’t pick me that night
They wouldn’t play with me
Somebody died again
Nothing violent
A fizzle to nothing
Another dusted
Another rises
Another
night cutie
