[alas, the tragic death
of aforementioned hero.]
truth leaks out from twisted
laughter.
honesty seeps through cracks
in plastered promises.
gentle rains beat
pound
kill simple fertility
of single stemmed wonders.
light of reason inquisitively
reflects darker hours.
company of Orion’s belt,
and a distant Jupiter
sky.
candle light soaked in
flamed dragon breaths.
power of independence
lengthens the road to be
tested.
and once taken
a signed contract of
disintegrating motherland
presence.
Armageddon’s cynical hand
cleans the slate and
detaches the soul-balloon holder
from their dangling ribbon
of company.
a simple umbilical severance
of soulmates.
