Dying Flowers
Welted petals
Falling from the sky
Like fresh snow fall
Ruined by the constant
Shuffle of the human trestle
Binding like ropes made
From stripped
Strings of metal
Tapestries weaved from
Threads of silken
Forgotten dreams
Fading, decaying
Eroding with stressful
Tension
Sticking to it’s base
Nectar glistens
A gluey, molded face
Lined with tape
A stapled fate
Strung marionette
Dances to a different
Beat
Breaking it ties
From it’s ruling skies
Shattering the threshold
In which Earth meets
Void of life
Drifting conscious
Weeds cracking thought’s
Iced soils
Dying flowers
Blacken vibrant hues
A split moment of
Violence
Shed it’d violet reds
Loosely cutting size
Shrinking, shriveling
Till no more
Stuck within sealed
Chambers
As walls close in
Last seconds
Dry against fragile skin
Dying flowers
last whisks of air fall
In painted over lumens
To weak to breath in
Dying flowers
Dream in fields of yellowing
Grass
Knee length in piling trash
Clouded in puffs of co2
Knowing whose at fault
Is you
Welted petals

My Liar
I hope you know
It eats at me
Like a virus
Killing my cells
Like cancer
You’re my infection
An addiction
My Nicotine
Keeping me in
A trance
Of peaceful
Misery
You’re my liar
Spreading your
Contiguous commodity
Like poison
Thoroughly
Through a river
Ragging
Coursing through me
Isn’t it nice
Just to feel
That numbing ting
The remorseless
Path of destruction
You rage through
My soul
A black blanket of despair
You’re my liar
Your terror
Set in every strand
Of my frail hair
Embedded in my DNA
And you like it that way
Controlling me like a puppet
Because I’m blind
And you’re my guide
Like a drug
Painful withdraws
Don’t leave
I need your greed
It’s the plentiful
grass of which
I feed
Tangling
Rearranging
Can’t you see?
You’re my liar…
My sacrificial
God
I need
I need
In you I find
Comfort
Safety
I know deepest
down the truth
You see
It’s the world
I’m against
And you’re
My protection
I’ll take the lies
If it keeps me
Above 6ft
Away from the
feeding flies
And hungry maggots
You’re my liar
And with that I
Thrive
My loneness
Is devoured
You wipe away
The tears that
Shower down
Smudging makeup
Ruining hair
But it’s with you
I find I don’t care
You’re my liar…
