Climb the highest mountain, punch the face of god

Moronity

His scenery is bleak;
Unimaginable dark
Blackening up his corners.

An empty mind, like
An archeological dig,
It's all dirt and dust.

I felt his sorrow,
Like traffic in my veins.

The slow rise of
Hysteria climbing his throat,
He yells a map
Of frustration.

But no one can hear him.

I pile affection upon him,
Fragile; easy to collapse.
A sand castle of concern
Being ignored.

Left to the romance of the waves.

Spared no expense,
So he's free,
But chained to moronical thought.

I traveled him like a
Road filled with pot holes.
One bump inducing nausea.

A sordid attempt to
Transport him to safety.

And then comes the picnic of fail.

My aching muscles rip.
I cannot carry him the rest of the way.
I leave him to his alienation.

I can move a rock, but
Not if that rock is an island.
