Your cessation
The conclusion I’ve come to
The fate we never un-dwindled
The fate we never bared
But it was a fate of mine and someone else
A fate beheld
Against you
Without you
A fate unshared

Why yes,
Your meek existence has not gone unheard
You showed me the way
Walked me to the path,
But now you must watch my fading back
This was no fortuity
No fortune with me,
No future you seek was held in my teeth

No,
Your kismet is kind, though blind
It’s behind you
Let your debossed muddied stride
Be your guide
I’ll wave goodbye
You belong somewhere still
But it’s not by my side

I slit apart your soul,
And I ridicule your innards,
I cackle at the thought of such a sad excuse
For this lump of human rind and bone,
You lived a life alone
And so,
Your termination shall be so, as well

I interpose myself between the dirt and your mind,
My jaw unhinges devilishly
My tongue licks you blind,
As it spits putrid words of pity
Dastardly staring darts into your
Witty little demise
That I conjured up myself,
A plan I devised
Your shriek will not salvage what’s left
Stop wriggling,
Your writhing is futile
You’re powerless,
Pathetic mortal *******,
You’re crucified
Why bother try?
Your cries go unnoticed,
Neither dead or alive
No one close by
Your miserable wheezing
As I’m breathing with ease
I’ll mutilate your wants and desires
Set ablaze in a fire
Incinerated with your own choir
Your sad song of solus fate
You’re at stalemate
Your blood will stagnate
Until it’s mucilaginous
Until your own body defeats you,
It chokes you and mistreats you,
And ends you from the inside out
A slow death, undoubtedly
A vile, cataclysmic, unendurable ending
An excruciating decease
But fair,
As you deserve nothing less
Than this wretched release

The fractal rays of the light
Through the frozen window,
The furious wind blows
My curious thought echos
The storm will not cease
But my mind is at ease

The smoke of the chimneys,
Fierce howling of might,
The fright of the whistling branch
The snow in a fury; a dance
The storm will not cease
But my mind is at ease

The latch rattles, wood creaks
Dust emancipated from antiques
My heart speaks
To the williwaw shrieks
The storm will not cease
But my mind is at ease

Your grappling hook
Latched to my rope
I harness the hope of hereafter
I greet it with laughter
We snicker at the doom below,
A tomb you’ll never know,
As the womb of our quiddity
The viscidity of release,
The nucleus of your fantasy
Is what my mind seduces
I’ll never fall,
I’ll never traduce this
And we will know the peak
The proximate pinnacle,
The victory,
The conquered squall
The tallest wall,
We will know defeat

Your once opalite mind,
Like charcoal
Like abrasive sod
Vitriolic tendencies
But alas,
You’ve sent them down sea
Burning the barque,
Where the body of your old ways lay
As you watch the ashes of the past
Incinerate and orchestrate into soot
A gaseous state of night terrors,
A smoky, mocking, voluminous cloud
That’s laughing at your errors,
Wrongdoings you’ve bared
The incandescence of your deeds
Bleeds for both of us
The deceit now loud,
A banging drum,
A thump against your head unbowed
You don’t cower, now
Standing ground, brows frowned,
Tenacity potent, firm stance, hands focused
Searing stare of green eyes,
Your stentorian war cry
A changing fate dancing nearby
Hyper-focused on the prize
With your battle axe in hand
Eqquiped for the skirmish
Ready for the ride
And me
Fighting at your side
Jelisa Jeffery Feb 2020
Feel it drench us
Heart to toe
I feel the past below,
Let’s tread,
Let’s trek,
Let’s tottle,
Full throttle
Utopia ahead,
Your role model is a single thread
The one that matched us long ago
A single thread
That lies untied
Between our bodies in the snow
The single thread
And our life anew,
To utopia we go
Me and you
