A Day Freed From Demons

Vanilla taste with a hint of fire
  upon my heart's tongue ~ 
as all breezes cool and through.

Mystical mental disorder ||-->
life <--|| my lips sew upon 
my torn heart//the lungs 
worn\\ 
bright blood superficial/
deep dark = death.

In St. Paul's Cemetary
the little people tend 
to the weeds and beetles;
the shallow inscription on
a stone:

ADULTS ARE DEAD CHILDREN
