The noiseless words of the radio drift
and a bizarre techno beat fills the air
unidentifiable words cut through tendons of breath
and I can't explain what they are
why they are there
considering I am not even there
Is a part of my body resting in the four white walls
washed clean of life
the blood that once stained them?
The shattered radio pulses out an unexplainable rhythm
one that is nonsense and genius at once
I bob my head
as though it is a beat
and not just white noise
draining away at what is left of my soul
           혼
A beat pounds out at me

"lead the fight

against Leviathan

if I fail try again

live and die by the pen"


It snaps
the ink explodes across the immaculate sheet
the light blue lines
pink margins
The ink swirls gently around the edges
stroking against the corners
staining them black
or maybe blue
words form impossibly across the page
looped letters
too perfect to be handwriting
"I will never die"
and the white noise envelops all

ON THE SPOT I don't think I can emphasize that enough with this one. It came out of my listening to a Korean radio station, and then I thought soul, then I thought of the song 혼 (Hon - Soul) by Epik High. EVERYTHING IN QUOTES IS BY EPIK HIGH. THOSE ARE NOT MY WORDS. THEY ARE LYRICS FROM A SONG. THEY ARE USED IN THAT WAY IN THIS PIECE OF WRITING. Radio = songs = lyrics = NOT MINE. They belong to the respectful owners of them, and I DO NOT CLAIM THEM IN ANY WAY. I just felt them in the poem and put them. THEY ARE QUOTED FOR A REASON - THEY ARE NOT I REPEAT NOT MINE AND I DO NOT CLAIM THEM. I cannot emphasize it enough. THEY ARE NOT MINE. I make NO claim to them in ANY WAY whatsoever. I wanted to make that abundantly clear.
So yeah, don't know if this stays up. Do not use my words, thank you very much. Zeus, no tempting, etc, etc, etc. Yeah.

I've even decided that the title fits perfectly because this poem is just bizarre in all ways. People like my nonsensical nonsense bizarreness... *stares in shock (the good kind of shock, if there is such a thing)*
