Where is my saint in the clouds Who has fallen from ether To reconfigure my essence? Where is my saint in the foam of the sea Who has evaporated into the mist And waits to be inhaled by me? Where is my saint in the grooves of my past Who paints with my tears A portrait of the coagulence I feel in the core of my being? Where is my saint in the eyes of the stars Who refuses to shine Until I’m sheltered in between the chaos of time? Where is my saint in the pores of the ground Who tacitly unearths a grave And convolutes my flesh into the pith of the earth? Where is the demon Who was born from my negligence And taints the deeds of my conscience, Frays the seams of my being And lays dormant in the cellar of all my possibilities? March 2012

From Ether to Entropy
Where is my saint in the clouds Who has fallen from ether To reconfigure my essence? Where is my saint in the foam of the sea Who has evaporated into the mist And waits to be inhaled by me? Where is my saint in the grooves of my past Who paints with my tears A portrait of the coagulence I feel in the core of my being? Where is my saint in the eyes of the stars Who refuses to shine Until I’m sheltered in between the chaos of time? Where is my saint in the pores of the ground Who tacitly unearths a grave And convolutes my flesh into the pith of the earth? Where is the demon Who was born from my negligence And taints the deeds of my conscience, Frays the seams of my being And lays dormant in the cellar of all my possibilities? March 2012
