"Random Acts of Kindness" you send the devil his reassurances of forgiveness through love the blindness corresponded some generous catharsis in a moment of delusion the sticky web nullified words sent words received morse code S.O.S. S.O.S. S.O.S. beats the pierced heart the invisible bleed next level love the shining haze bars raised backhand played fast on the court roll called the masked ball those present all masked the flying monkeys love-all; two devils abscond with all that matters most what follows is not what we are taught kindness, a random act a walk to George’s Heights the sun shines not a cloud in sight blue sky adorns release, never arrives easily, there is always the cost, when the morning star is torn and falls grounded Home homeless, lost a reason for everything the purpose a mystery that too, the loss random acts of kindness the cost, the loss two sides of a coin tossed gravity, pulls in anchored words the heart interred the card reversed (LadyLabyrinth / 2023) "no more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue"
