As Life Begins To Wane

On countrysides animal scurry along, leaving footprints In the carbonized material of this planet. Channel surfing & empty ink pens, Pepsi & wadded up candy wrappers All over the house remannts of LIFE Breathing all over us. LIFE moves over us like a rapist in some dark room We somehow forgot about In the brightest hours; It leaves footprints In the carbonized material of this skin. Passing through streets burning with loneliness & boredom; Sometime I often wonder about the perplexity All of it stains upon our memory. Midst preposterous pink & turquoise blue color Our LIFE begins to petal, slightly bruised. -------------
