Pathways toward escape
rarely survive ensuing fruition.
Gather
intellect, its spatial diversity, teeming
with bodily function
becomes injured through inherited
darkness,
spasms correlate with copacetic
rhythms called
'realization through transformed becoming.'
Before the death of you, the ending
symbol was a gratitude echo
retrieving itself from the lips of
a sadistic spill. Held your thought,
a
golden bar mimicking more than
memories and calligraphy could contemplate
across the room and miles of unwound scrolls,
instead, words
stepped down in sequential
hurricanes, whispers, dichotomies: humanity.
The anomaly here is the alive died/revived between breaths,
accolades,
the mind forgot how to fathom past circumstances.
Within an attempt for allowance to break the
embrace upon realization, time interpreted
negation of emotional contents, then
vanished.
Eye fires burn the unaware, the
physicality erupting within societal
nonchalance, metaphorical turning
of the back towards neighbors, studies of
maintaining and ascertaining. Contemporary
blur is the neoclarity, forming salutations
among verbal silence.
