Sustenance

Accursed thing that lurks
Daytime denies your petting

Comedy

Cadence that flows like honey
Precision colored delivery
A visage that blooms on tongue
Like biting into a cherry

Window

Vision returns with a foray of light, and
The window opens and your skeleton’s there
It waves hello, and I reach out to touch…

Ever stand witness to decay in close range?
A renascence, truly
When there are lesions in my brain
Would I too, turn to god?

Beast was quite distraught, oh well
For one, he was a “beast” now
On top of all that he had to find true love
What even is “true”? Seriously, how?...

Somedays I feel gifted
Talent, beauty, brains
These, these are good days
Entitled to propagate
Bloodlines to bloodlines

Solace, oh but where?
This ever weaving agony of restlessness
Following me from decade to decade
Afraid to cut the strings that haul me forward

Once I walked through a great grey forest
Beauty to which was no peer
Never have I seen such grandeur such shade
Haunted with promise and fear
