Don’t hate

that which you

are

but instead,

love that

which you can

be

I’d
rather be featured amongst the

dead

than
dreamless amongst the

living

Inferno,
exponential flame
tearing at the world until
all that’s left is it’s name

from the dust and gravel
arise the youth
on revolutionary wings of
marble

only for the glorious resurgence
to become fallen angels
engulfing the world
that they had wished
to save in
earnest
