Discontent blossoms Through these frail Withering floorboards Contorted Slithering Skewering the quiet And haggard sliver of home These roots never tire They steamroll on Laying claim To the final few Morsels of hope Rapture My beleaguered And former state Is wrung To its last Each hour I fall away from courage
-
A strange calamity Obscures The fair world I retain And little remains For these starved Ever-roving eyes These truth-harboring panes Are plagued With jagged roads of crimson For I’ve allowed The steady drum of anguish To distort once true and proud Melodies of rapture Offbeat and battered And ground To a withering heap My peace…
