Clink clink clink clink...
Test tubes prattling past
along the chrome plated production line.

Gloriously luxuriating in eternal sleep

Forlorn; bereft of golden
(slippered) opportunities I weep;

And amidst the gloom, exhumed from the tomb,
A shaded and ghostly shape,
With cobwebbed...

emotions are coursing over gnarled Travertine rocks 
surreal 
tears are my broken dream’s shards

Her paintbrush is a razor,
Her canvas, her wrists,
"I deserve the pain."
She shrugs and insists.

One day the brush will push down,
And it will cut so deep,
That this girl will fall

Does God know the sorrows of man?

Does Faith relieve the burdens of sin?

I fought to tarry a while longer...
As I grew weak, he grew much stronger—

I hate robocalls!

Inxs of recorded messages   
transmitted automatically 
to my telephone number 
by automatic dialing device.
