No Escape

Published on February 28, 2008 By Buddah Moskowitz In Poetry

Somewhere else
is what I want

but right here
is all I'm gonna get

and all I need
according to God.

So I'll walk through it
without booze
or pills
or illicit thrills.

You walked through
this howling madhouse
of no escape
and let them
nail you to the cross
where you died for me.

You're just a
big show-off
Jesus.

You suffered for me.

I pray I can
return the favor.

...and learning that is the hardest thing, isn't it Buddah?

Man, oh man, am I glad to see you back bro. We'll adapt somehow won't we?

I second that. I love the first two paragraphs. I wish I knew how to use quote or copy paste it. You always make me think Buddah. I'm not sure if I like it, you making me think I mean, but it must be good for me. You are my JU Broccoli.

I've always loved your poetry, Buddah. Keep them coming.

BTW, I tried to send you a submission for virtualpoetryreading and it returned to my inbox, saying yours was full. Let me know when I can re-send it, because I'd love to contribute.
