Word Play

word play 
 agitates
 souls
 that 
 lack the
 right 
 alignment in
 their back

 eyes
 drawn with 
 markers 
 that have drawn 
 eyes that are gold
 that mold 
 and glaze over
 like love that
 has been left in 
 the cold.

 breathe me 
 in through nostrils
 that resemble lips
 that taste like ears
 that hear nothing but senses
 laced in acid

 enhancement in veins
 run like advancement
 through generational names
 this nonsense....

 no.
 this is word play
