Poems
Mar 2020
Submerged
Waterworks are failing
Nile faucet tears
***** powder salt
Plague blood wine
Fermented analgesic sea
Swallow Ebers papyrus
Swallow ******'s scroll
Raze the periscope, this is no crusade
Born blind under duress
They sink mid-thigh in pools of acronym
Copper pennies at their toes
Can't wish for things they haven't been
taught to believe
Steal them instead
They'll get a parade for far less
But then again the winds might turn
The sea might divide master and slave
And there they shall be peeing their pants
"In caelum fero--we make our mark"
You picked a bad day to fight, Egyptian
