Stairs of Nothing

..         stairs
     up            of nothing
                                    wefall....
                                                   a willingness bending
beliefanddeath
                       a lonely togetherness....of scented candles and defecated dreams.
  (iyou) forsake
                       a solitary
oneness............................a tantalizing silence(encased)
.
....................................................................................in receptacles of broken glass,
 
the clenching fascist ......................................................alone.
