Latent Black Payback

Losses not consolidated leave contributor raw Arrears rip pages of rational compassionate law Turblent thoughts toss turn to channel retaliation Embittered brain rubs static into smooth radio station Nocturnal curtain eternal drawn over forgiving stance Tortured cortex tar drips coal smudge repugnance Behind lids of eyes fingertips pressing upon Lacking exposure conjures warped projection Attonement can't be granted during darkness Confessions sparkle once in white starkness Killing accountability in murky private mind Proliferating hatred sees old harm magnified Asperity of sins committed stew in torpid trench Years of historic plot twist regale harsh revenge Bulged breeding dim ideas seethe evil scheme Attack mapped by movie shock putrid scenes Creeping balaclava covered crow bar at chest Knavish initiation repaid with blood reaps debt 24th August 2021 Written for Contest : The Colour Black Sponsor : Chantelle Anne Cooke
