carnations of chains

...............his

between    chains & carnations

my silent disavowal to the night

the tethered  ropes of humanity

the pulp that ripens & rots

   before the first bite

    before he get’s to have it all

     the promise of an america   (lost era)

    we all fall

       amongst the bricks & poets

   the machines & hoplessness

     the starvation of the heart

            once we could all

  finally reach across

the earth

    it falls

it ruins of rhyme

with too much reason

  too much of everything

      left the future with nothing

yet here we lay

     dreaming of a big pay day

   ******* hope

    from between my legs

i love you

i love you

         ‘til I go away
