Poems
Mar 2015
Bread and Circuses
I wanna be your doll You're alone We can be alone together
dead as the space between time I'm singing for my true love's kisses
they fill the air and sky
and only when I'm sleeping they come back
but they keep me angry
and I hear no good sounds
but the trumpet calling out for my head
my body hung in a dead field
shunned even by the sinking sun
and thin black crows
I can't get back awake
I am insipid and my bones rust in the frigid wind
I yawn and midnight smiles for me
I feel the pressure of countless aeons
my death eclipsed by countless aeons
the weight of endless years
after my love slipped from my dying hands
Now I cry for no one
but howl back at myself
enraged at myself
for my feelings
left behind
a trail of blood
writing on the wall
that will not see the light of day
and scythes stuck in my whimpering chest
