Lily petals line the resting streams
And the dragonflies dash there and then
A summers wind rests on my face
My back is surrounded by little fishes
Big wish, to be seen as the eagle
Not the roach
Insensitive scum is the ogling heart of man
Bitter drinks we heave into our mouths
Then watch our intestines cry in agony
Wrung our from years of ignorance
The body ignores our tears
And afterwards, we die
Though we did hoist the trophies
Parading our hubris and galavanting youth
In the streets of time, we danced in moonlight
Her lips felt like rubies when we kissed
Weighing me down until I cracked the bed
With our intellect
We plowed Gaia till she burst in terror
Telling ourselves she would enjoy it
If we did it super rough
And blindfolded the children
They
Watched
Telling the story to the sky
Somebody has to hear the tragedy
The trauma
Rots the DNA, turns it to asphalt in the vein
Falling farther from the sky, they sink
Into couches and down video games
The spine evaporates, the brain slumps
Can you read my heart, spell my soul
Will your attention span even let you breathe?
LOVE this!!šš
