Manificently melting

If we opened up and delved into

ourselves, what would we see?

A miniature mockery tight lipped,

shedding the creases of yesterday

 

Slip away and it will catch you, in indefinite poses, the latch key sapping, the juice subsiding, no generosity searching for you if you will

 

Running from respite to find peace,

a wail in a churchyard strictly rigid,

doesn't recognise my wide eyes, arriving on time deliberately stamping
