Unobtainable

blood
stained.

A
message from the jugular
Suicide notes
tears drop from a thousand eyes
and wash the sidewalks clean
of filth
of blood
of desperate cries
gone silent with the dream
darkness lights the alleyways
where life is cheap as rust
needles lay in greasy puddles
rats feed on the crust
deeper we fall
into nightmares awoken
speak not of this if you live in the light
there are tears enough for that which is broken
just close your eyes
and sleep at night
My soul
saw
money machines
not
human beings
and my
heart stains
from
her beauty in pain
are nature's fate
being built
around
hate

Deep within the veil hide and seek
ghostly memories play
come forth from dreamtime
followed into day, hints and flashes
flashes and hints of badness
perplexing, unsettling the mind.
