The Price of Pestilence

Stillness shatters the silence
Surrendered drops of noise slander
the timbres of isolation.
Lonely tear drops weave a heavy
pathway along unseen veins of greed
while envy advances backward emotions toward
obsolete options.

What is the price of pestilence?
Locusts eating out the portions of
mind rent with remnants of relished
resentments. Unrelinquished
reliquaries of resistance bow to what
is required.
Floods of self-hatred pour through
our fettered flesh hiding out inside the
wetlands of fiendish frenzy.

Foundations crumble. Beliefs fall away
like dried feces as we roll and rake...
immolate and make one final, feeble attempt
to masticate our overplayed sense of power
stolen like the face of innocence
pretending
to love our neighbor while stealing their
food, their women; babies slumber
starved
in the wake of "take it while you can," until
the instant of dead stillness thunders shaking
millions of petrified, putrefying souls into
keen awareness: WAKE UP ASSHOLES!!!
without each other there is no reward, no homecoming
only the wasteland of self-inflicted pestilence.

These are observations of my observed behaviors projected out into a seemingly

A year of introspection; accepting responsibility for everything
that happens.
