This place, more orange nowadays.
|
The ashen badlands redeem.
|
Your face, through magnified glass, still draws me in.
|
Those big eyes draw me in.
|
Distrophy, stale again.
|
Entropy: care so much for kamikaze copilots who wear helmets.
|
Encapsulated but commingling.
|
Privatized public apologies that are bought and sold.
|
Packaged and stored in atticks for addicts.
|
Cold hands strumming the mile-high regrets.
|
Perplexed?
|
Perhaps!
|
Impossible to postpone plights of professional penmanship.
|
Unopinionated routines, worn knees in a crawling season.
|
Easy to imitate the oaks: shave a mountain man's beard.
|
Insidious sight-seers holding candles to those clutching torches.
|
Torture.
|
How will they put out the flames?
|
Once proud to be the anxious, nae marionette.
|
But in time, became the shrewd, arthritic puppeteer.
|
Compare and contrast.
|
Were you better off then as you alienated your limbs?
|
Alienated your purpose to flail?
