it all adds up
but you can't love
what you can't
have mock
you.
you most certainly can’t do that.
you will not consume.
Consumption will usurp you epically.
your talismans are annulled eventually.
your bulimic heart will divide shadows
with darker shadows.
a darker
dark.
cut them like cake. divide your passing into long spikes of utter void.
it all adds up
but you can’t love
what’s not there
to love
you
but quite the opposite.
and the opposite
of love
is watching Nothing
die -
but you thought
it was something
before it devoured
you
like a morsel
of speck.
like a light.
