Bogdan_Dragos in Poetry & Free Verse

all you can do, dear mind

he throws his weak body on

the bed

and breathes against the

mattress

and feels around with his hands

in the vain hopes

that maybe, maybe he'll be able

to find another one

of her lost hairs

No luck

Ah, isn't it amazing how much of

a hopeless creature a human's

mind is in this

reality?

The mind of man is the ultimate

loser in all of existence

It literally never wins

against the heart

Never!

If the heart tells you to love

the one being who

wakes you up in the middle of the night

with a vicious bite on the neck

and demands that you

listen to her story about

how her fourth eye opened the last

time you fucked

and she saw God...

The mind can do nothing about it.

Oh, mind, you eternal

loser

Don't you ever get tired

of losing?

Even now as she is far, far away

in another world

you still can't win over the heart who

tells you to remember

and worship her

You're hopeless, mind. Hopeless

All those years ago,

she opened her fourth of ninth or

whatever eye and saw God,

but me...

I had only to close the eyes

that I had

and feel her right there

God is whomever your

heart tells you that God is,

and nobody else

and despite all religions and creeds

and dogmas and indoctrination

and cults... The mind, as always, has no

saying in the matter

All you can do, dear mind, is give up

and rest in peace

Thank you.
