I STATE MY CASE
My logic
an inward interrogation
Nothing of me
...is left original
I've been raped
mind, body and soul
I am these combined efforts
of those people
whom trespassed
trampling my space
my heart
There is a circus
in which I lived
I have watched
and have been in part
We have danced
and brought up sparkling dust
from our ground of majestic gardens
into a dysfunctional atmosphere
The dead surround us
their demise a secret
as their identity
I am utterly lonely
no living
no death
will fulfill this whole
The gaping void
to which I try to enter
I try to suture
to no avail.
Underneath a glitter escape
I lie myself down
upon the earth
upon my ancestors
Where is my paradise
where is my happiness
I confide to the sky
in my pitiful nature
stumbling over my words
I become reverent
and kneel ignorant
I've been harnessing
my personal withdraws
imagining my life
across that infinite landscape
that I have witnessed-in photos
Value the price
ignore those materials
Hear that tiny voice
react-react
You have successfully
denied and cried
I insist my words written
have been re-written
inside that tablet
The metallic taste
rests upon my tongue
The pink of my skin
has wrinkled
and faded
I am about someone's dream
a shallow breath
a celestial suicide
hiding inside subliminal music
Orchestrating:
The theme of life and death
