A Poet's Notebook: Untitled

Buzzes and murmurs
amidsts lessons
in quartiles and deciles--
fractiles or quantiles.

Memories floating;
Imaginations trying
To swallow reality
And realizations.

Broken poetry escapes
The writer's lips.
A wounded heart
Healed by the writer's sword.

The poet has lived
In a surreal world,
In make-believe places,
In a phantasmagoric city.

He despises love
Although he believes
That love is surreal;
Love is make-believe.

He lives in irony.
His life is a paradox.
He escapes reality,
Yet shuns away fantasy.


Author's Note: 2008. I remember writing this poem in the middle of my Statistics class back in college.
