[hometext] => This is two poems that I've decided are now one. Like all my poems, this is best when read aloud. Thanks.
[bodytext] => Dust vs Destiny (2-10-9) reckless on purpose, refuse to pray my mind wanders and my skin won't stay my soul left rattling in a smiling cage chased the grave all day today happily a gravesite is our birthright why even bother to breathe through the night no sense of silence, no shadow of sight no lust for salvation, no love for the light don't even care about the coffin that crawls crawls on the ceiling and sleeps in the walls it watches us flail about like warm, violent dolls it crawls then claws lazy when Tombstone calls destined to dust, apocalypse kiss traded heaven for Reason, milk and honey for **** laughing at fear and my ignorant bliss haunted by ghosts I don't think exist blessed by a Curse that feeds on Gone Mad dining on still-screaming goodness Gone Bad consumed by laughter cuz it's all so sad when god damns the souls angels wish they had the End of It All is just for pretend a fairy tale broken when Truth wouldn't bend the pages of Time list the wages of Sin as bones become dust become ash become wind while old eons fade, while young eons grew meaning meant nothing...not something new a ghost who once glimpsed both the Trick and the True said the answer is Death. the question is You.
