that wrench up into my chest does pull upward in waves,
again I see my world unfold, dissolve into emptiness, loathing myself my enemy
What egregious sin enacted this cycle, this darkened moons rising.
A crime in passion, truer motive than any, so fair and empowered
purity struck down, an inconvenience of time, of growth.
Valiant efforts seen twisted, lie perverted amoung gutters filth,
once more eviscerated the substance of joy tugged from its open womb and banished.
Life's powder faced clown more interesting now, a capering fool,
grinning with dripping grimaces and eager eyes, riches pouring from his snarl,
beautiful bills float down, muffled laughter and champagne corks explode around.
that dirty cabaret, in sticky simplicity, so alive, so sensual, a party of whispers everlasting.
stumbled down, the rabbit hole winding into loveless oblivion.
forget not that world apart and my arms, open, ready to catch, ready to hold.
