Image for the poem Seal My Lips

Seal My Lips

I wish I could
seal up all the words
that have so carelessly
tumbled from my lips

gaze upon them in their trapped state
I wonder what they would look like
imagining a whirling black void
with tendrils still seeking to suck life
from the people I uttered them to

longing with all my heart
to take them back
I ask the heavens to
cast them in the sea of forgetfulness
where I no longer play the dark jester
with no laughs to be had
