Poems
Feb 2021
Sackcloth and Ashes
Eternity lasts continuously
Caught inside these walls
For those giving it willingly
For those just taking the fall.
Polar gaps in distances
Find a center in the way
At one particular instance
Balance’s leverage tilts astray.
When you sleep and go nowhere
You know that you’re in deep ****
Well, life goes round in spheres
And death just finds a center in it.
It’s just Gravity taking command.
Lighting sideways fireworks
Midway through the song
A presentation made spectacular
For those triggering their guns.
A mass with a lot of shouting
A few stains sink on the floor
Couple of jerks went interrupting
Like the way it’s been done before.
When you sleep and go nowhere
You know that you’re in deep ****
Well, life goes round in spheres
And death just finds a center in it.
It’s just Gravity taking command.
It’s just Gravity
Such Gravity
Do you understand…?
The Gravity?
When they went out to see him
Some left the show in trance
What’s the price of an afterimage?
His trade of hands made in France.
Vintage celebrity appearance
Burns bright down on the crowd
Why would any need reassurance?
An immolation of sorts to make HIM proud.
When you sleep and go nowhere
You know that you’re in deep ****
Well, life goes round in spheres
And death just finds a center in it.
Death finds a center in it
Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth
The between lines written in bold
Give death for life and life for death.
Second episode in 'The Velvet Empress' "saga". Inspired of actual events.
