inertia

a shard of an ancient, obsolete
throne
cast like shrapnel through tunnels
of culture-

reconciling with assimilation its
sugared venom upon the vapid grace
of millennia inertia,

regularly repairing the subliminal sirens
to maintain the devotion to
our fall.

swayed to a gilded cage by a
daemon's script, forged in the excess
of absent conscience.
