Poise & Noise
Being obscura noctura
like Ophiuchus
doesn’t make me special or different
I’m standard issue
bitten a time too many by shrapnel and layered in scar tissue that reads like a road map of bad decisions that ended cataclysmic collisions
and yet I’m reminded that flowers still bloom at The Carnage of Carthage, so maybe some day, some way, I’ll find an avenue to pull all the words I’ve held at bay back from the fray
