End stops #Anne Sexton
How clean the fresh dug grave
Empty footprints stamped from lifes arrears
The tired franked stamps, torn out to save
Wheelbarrow's punctured wheel collapsed
Weeds that choke untended crops
Shining bronze of desolation
Type prints shouting with your fixations
A metronome of incarceration
Times the hammer on the final nail
Scattered ashes of dried hormones
Jigsaw scrabble that's your subliminal headphones
Black carrion crows to peck at your minds eye
The strewn of all the dreams price tags
Comes exhaustion, running out of options nag
Pipe dreams full of haemoglobins lead
The handbrake locked her resting place
# Attribution to a fixed point her wishes so disposed
MY own brother to that place it seems so self engrossed
Empty footprints stamped from lifes arrears

Scattered ashes of dried hormones
Jigsaw scrabble that's your subliminal headphones
Black carrion crows to peck at your minds eye
The strewn of all the dreams price tags

Pipe dreams full of haemoglobins lead
The handbrake locked her resting place
