random journey

Post by saw »

like a Dionysian weaver of ego
you march in immortal chaos,
your pickled irises have lost their brilliance
and that once fierce courage that turned so many gears

has rusted..... that orchestration
that insisted they mesh, is running through town
like the village idiot,
no Orphic trumpets announce your coming

the constellations are worried and tired
the galaxies are disappointed in your decisions
the planets cry for what could have been
and you can only marvel in the beauty of your perfect brain
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism
