Bellowing, force-fed metanoia
A bitter shadow cast over salvaged memories
By and by a product of precarity
If iron sharpens iron, why do sparks of revulsion fly?
Exhausted of light, blinded by blight, artificial shine
Unbalanced and unkept, pushing through foundations
The undergrowth consumes and collects
Beneath my skull
Its taunting my skin, growing so thin
Callouses heal, encompass chaotic dread
Piercing the skin of grief
One layer deep
Questioning emptiness, counting every breath, unsolved pleading cries, plagued by anciеnt lies
Burning stomach, toss and turning, up in ether, brain is curdling
Milеs of regret, steady dreaming death, chained by compromise, plagued by ancient lies
Lacerating
Piercing the skin of grief
