There’s something so sinister about being lost inside of yourself;- I apply Lip Ice before I fall asleep, just in case I have to experience That cold kiss with Death. But that’s one being, being less than generous to oneself, and giving out a lot of degenerate excuses Of not doing so well. Rambling picaresque; engulfed by a hardened sense; feeding well into my own insecurities, made from haphazard ingredients- as a soul that tastes like concluded gumbo Still, I ate a full plate; possessing a ruthless taste; an illegitimate descendant of experience- that ******* is tapping, watered down By the chit and chatter of rain; a totem of pain, spoken in haste, As my lips are a cigarette ember, kissing while heat reveals itself, As a tiny echoed spark, in a pool full of fresh gasoline I only hear the sound of peace, in a snoring dream, _ha,_ I hardly do try to breathe out of my nose. From not being altogether; are we Really all together- who really knows? But only the dead, who truly Get to see the entire world, as souls that rise, or of course those who fall As its truly so sinister living as beings, in this world’s being.
