heard through
tropical torrents

a million miles
of the milky seas,
away from
mint-marine
silhouettes of my
utopian wonderland,
as strawberry
ripples and
coconut-scented

Quills of Destruction
It all begins in the darkest part of our empty souls.
When we realize we won't or can't possibly reach our goal.
