Poems
Mar 2018
Your mortality creeps up on you and the bravado disappears.
Every day I cough out more days.
I cut off of my life.
My protest against existence.
Slow suicide that seems to have caught up.
Sometimes you get confused.
At the terror of an immediate death.
A stroke.
Or a heart attack.
You can taste your rotten.
Breath.
Feel the oedema.
But, smile.
Getting lost in the delerium.
A lack of oxygen.
Euphoric decay.
The bodies defense mechanism.
And I rest well.
In the knowledge that relatively soon.
All those things.
That life I had.
That aborted life.
My lack of motivation.
And my isolation.
All my self destruction.
My abomination.
And, I'll curl up.
Shedding pounds like.
Bad experiences.
And dry up in the sun.
With each failing *****.
Each laboured breath.
I'm free.
I can fade away.
I'm washed clean.
Receding into the back ground noise.
That calm place.
Where nothing moves.
Everything in still.
And.
Constant.
