Depression: An Explanation

To lose the robust and ephemeral vitality,

is waking up in dazed desolate imitation,

that creases and crinkles euphoric principality.

 

Blades of grass, sharp tipped spears of unreality.

A chilling, a challenged negation;

to lose the robust and ephemeral vitality.

 

Spinning round the ugly formality,

are snickers, unshy sneers of an evil salvation,

that creases and crinkles euphoric principality.

 

Thrilling no longer a verb, piano key pressing its precious mortality

into her throbbing thrashed temple dictation.

To lose the robust and ephemeral vitality.

 

A ****** numb soul with the criticality

of skeptics, chewing their lips, a dead cell castration

emotional stripping, slipping into complete impromptu filtration.

That creases and crinkles euphoric principality.
