As the light slid in
It burnt the dreaded lover
Consciousness cindered and smoked in the eyes
The last thundery beat of breath tore across the confused lips
Lips contorted and irises melted
The vibrations of the ether pushed on
The moment rolled past like a bass line
Cold rhythm of snaking steel wire
writhed through the weary spine.
The path of chaos
Igniting each tendril, each nerve ending
And the lover sighs
For none of us are safe
In the wake of what it means
To be human.
