The Clarity of my Vulgarity
I’m stuck
Quaking like a duck
Hoping for luck
To make me unstuck
I’m out here, waiting
To get a rating
A rating creating and translating
To my isolation
10 out of 10, They could write it with a nice pen
10 out of 10, Is the rating again
Of my loneliness and disparity
The clarity
And the vulgarity
Of what my heart has become, And what the relentlessness
And the pit, pat, pit, patter of my heart pushing against my chest
However I still cannot digest it, so I will digress
A box filled to the brim with scones fresh from the bakery
Maybe they are lemon poppy seed, My favourite flavour
However, in this box, there are also slices of bread
Moulding, rotting, de-composing
But still there, still enough to infest you with sickness
Still enough, to make you nauseous, and vomit
But what your hurling will not be only the half-digest food in your system
But instead, The words telling the infested, moulding food to get out, brewed
I brew the coffee beans of my soul every day
The roasted beans, that sent me away, Into a world of decay
So I say again
10 out of 10, Is the rating of my shame
10 out of 10, written with a quill pen
Is the rating of my restrain
Of my loneliness and disparity
The clarity
And the vulgarity
Of what my heart cannot come back from
And what the restless, has done
So 10 out of 10, 10 out of 10, 10 out of 10
Is the rating on my pain that made me never be the same
So here I write 10 out of 10 with a pen, knowing I’ll never be the same or for the matter sane
Ten out of Ten, The Clarity of my Vulgarity

I was inspired to write this poem when trying to brainstorm for another. The piece is really just about the clarity of being confused and how I'm so sure of the fact that in every part of my life I'm unsure.
