In the Meadow

Through the atypicalities of due process
I wrench my ever-rusted ribcage off it's
Hinges-

Sunlit paradigms,
Dust crusted smiles;

A gaping canyon, I cast toward you
A lightless cavity,
A nothing-prison of brittled bones
Which, caked with dried blood from when
My Heart imploded,

Roll and click against eachother like marbles
In the wicked mouth of fiction
