Poems
Feb 2011
Toxic Blooms
I swim in bare walls,
Dark tide, images:
glass meets tile, crashes
Ricochets,
Stings; sheets
Tattered. Life
through a grinder.
Splintered.
Unnatural menagerie,
The tiger crawls,
Surfaces. Escapes the well.
Breaks cold links:
Steel, Iron,
Indestructable spiderwebs
spun fervently,
Silent explosion.
The tiger flexes, nails
Grip flesh. I am torn
inside Out.
Vertigo.
The tiger paces,
restless among confines,
spinning eyes.
I will the world
to Burn.
Drown.
End.
