Maslow's Hierarchy
Misery on hold, delayed stagnation
modified, forcing it's hold into the
crevices of your mind
it's frayed edges with tiny knots
preventing slippage.
The stench of a rotting life smells
beautiful in my smoldering nostrils
the hairs singed inhaled like rancid
amphetamine left to melt
in the sun leaving a lovely puddle
of liquid death.
A lethal mix of decaying day lilly's
atomized and carried by the wind.
Into the putrid ravines ransacked
of all the wildflowers meant
to bring euphoria to those who
hallucinate their minds breaking
apart at serrated edges
Maslow in his disappointment lies
supine with tiny packing sheets
they subdue him as he begins to
fixate on needless needs popping
sheets of bubble wrap with a
crazed look on his face
Wondering where he went
wrong
