Decay of Friendship
Lone regale of corpse plant rot.
Leaden legs on streets of dust.
Crevices of six feet ill.
Long nails hanker the earth’s crust.
Gray roses laid on tombstone.
Senescent-fade of best buds.
Repast to pay its tribute.
Petrichor release of studs.
In morrow brittle thorns stink.
Unmanicured foes dig deep.
Writhe of vermin circle box.
Quondam insomniac sleeps.
