Emotional Perihelion
EMOTIONAL PERIHELION
Alpha rhythm
Relaxation to angst
Indifference inspired hate
Electrified mutiny. Powerful schism
Scofflaw perplexed;
Sycophantic insensate-
Brutal – inhuman – Trait
Trail of honey to lead the insects-
To altruistic rape.
Drug down into a selfless feudalistic hate.
Sadomasochistic shapes
Shadows crawl back in
And begin to dissect
Honor to inject and action to defend;
With pride, dishonor dies. Says goodbye,
To shame and regret.
The end.
