Why? What have they done? |
|
Who has the culprit crossed and forced in another year? |
|
Why have some gone, but we are still here? |
|
Sitting in a circle of clouds. Enforced. |
|
Upon my head. Above my eager eyes. |
|
Misplaced. My mind abandoned. Seized to substance. |
|
Abused in months of excess. Heat flashes of memory. |
|
Breathing in good health. To stop the nightly excess. |
|
Pounding on the walls of the temple. Beside the cross. |
|
Bury me in the bay. Tempt me with throated swords no longer. |
|
Oh, I am weary. I am tired. Tired of leaping. |
|
Collections of caskets. I am lurking death. |
|
AN ANIMAL. A curse to myself. |
|
Harms way for those I cherish. |
|
Done. Forced in light. |
|
Versed, as the child, on and on. |
|
I am home. |
|
I am home. |
