When I’ve reached A full and impregnable stature The world Shall tremble in dismay As I hope And fiendishly dream Atop My lone sliver of exile My prey of retribution Sparks a greater fear From within For I know It shall not last Once the highest plumes Are forever lost

Something stirs From inside These thick and dreary walls A soft Unheeded toll From beneath the tatters Of an unkempt hide The useless arc Of dull words Can never delve too deep They’ll never see The mires within That rove And befoul The proudest of hearts

We were falling Compromised and young Destined to reel Dwindling In the name of good fun The hours all sank In a heedless swan dive For the wormhole of rapture For the allure of chemical disarray Until the day was drawn Setting fire To our face-down silhouettes Until the infernal dawn Had singed away At…

I’ve reclaimed The watchfulness Of stern and downcast eyes The scores I’ve abandoned Fearfully Ensnared by panic When each shallow breath Was all too much When every lock-step Brought down The lash of exhaustion I’ve reclaimed The scorn of passersby As I weave hopelessly Through the bends and curves Of indifference All mercy Soon defers…
