The endgame And the cemetery was nowhere to be found yet was so present in the shallow depth the graveyard of the mind No tombstone unturned fragmented torn and twisted sorrow flowing down encrypted alleyways and Thanatos’ call Searching to imprint coffin’s nails on seams of muddy icy prison hammered chiselled avenues creeping through and in Dead alive and collocated hell firing place and time scorching cementing looming crossing overs to where and when to how No monument just monumental nothing void oppression endless loop’s demise thoughts emotions dragging Torrential thunders roping in electrocuted lightning nooses from the tree of living emptied darkness flowing rapids standing still The cemetery awaiting ashes urns and vultures presiding over Ganges Styx Caron caring like a lifeless Buddha saddened Giving taking suffering unthreading tapestry graffiti splashing on the canvass sombre art in progress oscillating back and forth The reaper harvests harshly the mindless soul and body crumbling bones infested carbons desiccation apathy hedonistic pleasures dull extinct Gravitation nudges wild and gently roaring culling sculls foreclosing scooping offerings burthens memories premature un-furbished epitaphs Silent roaring rampant syncopal admonished synergetic resolution teasing fool and morbid jester luring loosening resolve apprehending lithographic scribes And the cemetery blinding obvious and for the taking present not yet for embrace remains a silhouette on the horizon and life for now is stronger May 18th 2016 Contest entered: And the cemetery was...
