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 © Kim van Breda—7 April 2015
