Maelstrom

§

So many beautiful

Wasted words,

that die unconsumed

or else we eat our own meals

In shame,

or throw them out in disgust,

Why keep a log of failures

when the redundancy of its content

only illustrates our foolishness.

Worshipping *** and violence as dark gods

because we are all excitation driven animals.

We fail to comprehend the divinity of these acts.

A merging of twin energies, such as these

creates wild vortexs of contrary  paradoxes,

overwhelming conundrums of need and desire.

We beg for destruction,

for we know that the longing can only be dulled,

the aching throb creeps along our day,

seeping in to enslave us in this cage.

In the horrific spiraling mania,

hands reach out, but loving arms are torn apart,

with declarations of desire and dedication

being shredded and scattered to whirlwind.

Long ago, I said this, with a foul mouth,

and you deserved so much better,

So I will say it again, so that perhaps this time

it will adhere to your mind, and fuse with your spine...

You are beautiful in the mirrors of my eyes,

and I carry your image stapled to my brain,

with the words

I love you,

carved into my frontal lobe

with a ceramic knife,

forged out of the powdered bones

of our failures.

Our victory lies

in knowing that our restless lips

await each other with all the patience they can muster

until I am able to touch you

and draw you to me,

so that I can pull forth

the divinity inside of you,

and merge it with mine

in a maelstrom of *** and violence.
