I’m beginning to embrace the pain
and anger hovering in the sky,
the bitter diction swallowing
my angle lined skin,
shunned existences stunned
and snapped, cracked and
collapsing, shaved and slashed,
washed away tears drunk
and shifting, a dangerous
poem bleeding equations
in unknown places, crazed
contemplation icy and blue,
dry and falling, dark and
fluttering, the way searching
leaves sift into strange
metaphors, crooning in
crushed rhymes, volcanic
heart erupting dying language,
shut down, eliminated.
