the suicidal similarities of days passing by.
my favorite words to vomit are,
“today went fast.”
but the year went fast,
and it scares me to think of how much
time was wasted dreaming of better days
and how to masturbate to them.
my better days are scarce.
ideally they’re spent
with dead people who don’t love me
and hurt me just right.
sociopath or asshole.
i’m open to the possibility of being both,
in which case it’s over for me.
i’ve had a fixation on ending it all.
an uninspired, faux-romantic plan to move far away
and die in a fit of passion.
far enough not to cause a fuss,
slow enough to watch the entirety of my life
flash before my eyes
and squeeze in one last full release.

to reference your title: WHAT is the DIFFERENCE between MEAT, and FISH?
If YOU BEAT YOUR FISH “IT” DIES!!
Alcohol is best for cleaning old tools and, for RACING.
Death is over-rated… I HAVE a “CERTIFICATE”, but do have the “time” to WATCH the CHANGE that made Me douse my gullet / brain with a CASE of 12% beer, CHASING DOUBLE VODKAS… Thirty YEARS ago. Then, I went to the Powdered Coca LEAF, mixing it with the “necture” of the “Tufted Bi-Valve.
Ridding one’s self of the STUPID, and THEIR “FRIENDS”, MAKES for “THE WISE OLD…”
Thanks for stopping through.

Cut “and it scares me” here. Good poetry should explain how you feel without spelling it out. And this is a great stanza, you don’t need to spell it out.

and maybe “dreaming” of better days instead?
whatever word you choose, but it’s the second “think” in two lines, and the repetition has no merit of use

Just want to say I really liked this poem. Had an easy slip in vibe, brain tingling.

PS. don't change anything, the repetition of feel was fine, I didn't even notice it. Poetry is all about cadence, this has cadence.
