Conscience, consuming.
My stomach has turned inside
and in on itself.

My eyes have rotted
and reduced to such lifeless,
stationary orbs.

Today is the day,
I ***** my weaknesses
to teach myself strength.

Written as a Haiku sequence.
Several written
And none read
History stabbed
Stories bled

Torn
Withdrawn
To except a fate
Waiting to be born
A prisoner of this state

Separating truth
I reveal the lies.
Bearing the leverage
I see the blind
I am asked.
To surrender my mind

Calming capitulation
Revolution reformed.
From the natural expression
Of dialectical form

Several written
And none read
History stabbed
Stories dead

— The End —
