Earthen Heart
the stench of death
once more betray
this aweary soul
an endless drop
of nightmarish
fleshly howls
in heartless
dismay,
awaiting an honest
yet detestable kiss
this heart of dirt
born an earthly
direful worm
against cold
unturned
stones,
an unkempt garden
of rambling paths
ever cut asunder
sinking deeper
'tween life’s
yet soulless
bereaved
mind,
in sempiternal battle
death’s tug-of-war
against the sting
of insuperable
loathly flesh
bearing its
ireless
soul’s,
false unfaithful words
abhorrent thoughts
of ever fleeting
hopefulness’
longed for
flight up
beyond
the sky
