peace

Touch your toes
Bend your knees
Prostrate yourself
And pray for peace
Relax your arms
To your side
Drop your weapons
And your pride
Widen your eyes
Close your mouth
Put her first
Do without
Feel the burn
Catch your breath
You can do it
Ask for help
Stretch your arms
Shift your hips
Speak your heart
Through positive lips
Do three reps
Every dawn
With your favorite
Dance tune on
Arch your back
Praise like trees
Prostrate yourself
And pray for [...]

bête noire

Anathemas and shadows and veins coursing lead
He’s looming and lurking and nigh-inspiring dread
Duplicitous and suspicious, I wish he were dead
He’s like some matured fictional monster come from under my bed

Heartbeats or footsteps
Or bodies falling down steps
Ambient, rhythmic moaning
Thrust into the [...]

fine day for a Funeral

Dearest, if you’re reading this
I may be already dead
My wrists are already red
The fish are already fed
“Hope is but a waking dream”
That’s what Aristotle said
That’s why I’m waking up in dread
And my forward feels like lead
It’s a fine day for a funeral
Be careful where you tread
Trust is all in your head
So do just as Papa [...]
