All those eyes Slowly shedding their skin Making small circles around each other’s Substance The look it seemingly undresses the nights Ghosts A blood fest of fists surrounds your head The aroma of darkness covering my placenta dreams An empty gun Lays adjacent to the rooms open view While in distracted light there appears my punch-drunk sanity As it devours (all) the shadows An uneven floor that injects my blood stream with dust and hollow words Stumbling over you was the answer to my loss of hope Like running thru graveyards and speaking in silence through tiny pinhole Mouths and forever living and not finding what may be in stored The afterglow of solitude The disjointed smiles that grasps for air Under your enormous wings of blame My tonic suggestion to incubate my after birth words A stillness of heart that shackles A memory and mortar apprehension I have not escaped In the long hallways of your past My own blank stare dissolves in the sunlight Then it was you Inhabiting the smaller cracks of my skin Taking my hurt and Willingly Being beautiful in the madness of blind faith A sordid ball of ugly lights which glisten And down the path where it leads To me You can place your gift to the dead crowd like Unraveled wire touching your lips A severed look of ignorance Beings of soft shells And broken by spinal cord modifications The lustful grasp shrouding your heart Makes its way taking shortcuts through graveyards
