I
The form we take
In the shape of a life
From trumpet birth blasts
To the final shadow sighs

Of worn shoes
Discarded styles
An inland lake...

Sardines have more space in their cans as compared to us,
Low ventilation, no water, little food,

head heavy
in hands
squeezing pounding temples

trapped in a trance
seated in this place
of emptiness and despair

the place that has welcomed
all of my fears and fractures

my heart pounds erratically
my eyes swollen and shot

a hypnotic gaze
into the somber gray
stone...

deep in my chamber of death, resurrected
with no recollection of the life before
no memories of past civilizations

in this otherwise...

Beautifully sculptured like a jewel
Armless, with bulges of a crown
But only those who narrowly escaped
With scars of your sharp fangs
Can tell the potency of your venom.
