You are like I, are you not?
First steps in cemeteries, your favorite memories,
that sound heard behind you,
the exciting spiritual solitude of God's Acre.

Horror movies, haunted houses, Halloween please!
We love wrestling, colors,
and love the dark just as much—
green clothing, red hair, nudity, tattoos,
and abstract art.

We like to smoke, some of us like to drink,
and we love them because they drink
and tell us their problems, and it’s funny.

We love bats, bridges, and the monsters that lie beneath,
the homeless and lonesome,
skeletons, fogs, frogs, pegs.
We love pizza and PPU!

Psychiatric illnesses and mental homes,
freedom & unity.

chocolates, chains, change,
inner beauty, lovely Goddess, best friend.

About the Artist
Jacob Rowan
Bio: I am a 38 year old man in prison who's fell in love with writing poetry and fiction and have been writing for 12 years. I write for the LONLUH: The lost, outcast, neglected, lonely, unpopular, and the homely. I am looking for anyone who would like to partner in creating a social media website displaying art and writing from the lost, broken, and suicidal. A website of art yet also community. Also looking for a publisher interested in reviewing a manuscript of 100 poems. If you are lost, if you see no hope, please contact me...
