Absolute
ABSOLUTE
there are varied fairy tales
where every hero always
wins
there is hurt and ebbing dust
where bones scream their beneath
skins
nameless eyes
eyes of dread
eyes of sparks
eyes like sharks
eyes are dead
ABSOLUTE
here I dwell in waves
wishing to engulf
me
thickening in a black
sea
lungs of smoke
lungs last breath
lungs of death
lungs that choke
ABSOLUTE
what meaning lies behind
despair that mirrors the
sadness of another sky
and tides green shaded
canopies that even
seas
will not comprehend
ABSOLUTE
