Fractured Smiles Embellish Your Nakedness
Cesspools,
sinkhole buries regret and sorrow layered over,and between
any good salvaged.
Remorse equals nothing,
you could offer.
Hold on to what drives you
this spiral road to nowhere
but a return to the flame
soothing burnt ends.
Rake the body
of solemn memories, skim energy blackened and negative weighing you down in your shallow hatred your life preserver, keeping
your mind afloat
above
the hurtful residue
Delivered from your tower
of shame, your chains that bind progress with fear sucking mongrel despised by love.
Fractured smiles embellish nakedness, parading your ass
on the outskirts of town.
Lost are the skills of a dreamer hemmed in behind tattered drapery presumed
to have vintage value only
not nearly as shabby as you.
Have a good day
breathing stolen air
from the goodness of me
the last breath you will ever comfortably breathe
