It Is Finished

 No seriously

by Emmit Other


I finished writing Water and Glass

A small book

Inspired by ....water and glass

Just 17 poems

Only poem 17

Turned into a poem 32 times longer

Than the other 16

Alternate dimensions

All of the planets

Existential dread

Riddles and Consent

Everything but the Kitchen Sink 

And the toast they give you for a free deposit

Its also now clearly more 

The ravings of a lunatic

The howling barking at the moon

Of the actual frothers of frothingness

But editing take place

To avoid causing Sanity Loss

Or a proclivity to find intimate emotional bonds

With Tentacle Things

So it instead

More of a desire to wrap bricks in lemon

And Pan Galactical Garble Yourself

Multiple Times 

Until you remember you read it

And do it again

In a never ending loop of pain and false memory

Gaslighting yourself until you resume in shame

Anyway it took a long time to write

And some of it is pretty good

I am sure you will enjoy it

I will let you know when its dons
