LEGLESS LEGEND

Expression in my poem, read this

Depressive loneliness 

All my mates fled the nest 

Even my best friend 

Came up too fast, got the bends 

Now I’m on a ledge 

Begging God for a single friend 

An ear to lend 

A word that’s tender and truly meant 

To mend me at my mental 

And heart centre 

No one was sent me 

Deity not sentimental 

Pal group thin, like on ozempic 

Resort to asking Djinn for help

Even though they’re famously pricks

Want someone who’ll dick around 

But stick around when I start frowning 

In my own dark thoughts drowning 

Should be before a dart board downing 

Pints of brown ale gach sathairn 

Mood goth, saturnian, that’s my pattern 

Guns and no ammo, boat no paddle 

Holding court with my shadow 

So I don’t feel alone, a stuffed bear 

To hold, almost mouldy

Had him since seven years old.
