Pharmakeia Farming



    You are a garden once bloomed, 
supple brightness now withered and cold,
lost to the eyes, gaunt succumbed to the reclusive catacombs from the daylight and Sun.
Lost in the echoes of a forgotten past, 
a forgotten childhood of 
dreams trashed in a flushed cache.
Memory fades, but faith is forever avast 
and yet come to be reconciled with a hope 
that will last longer than dopamine,
not a synthetic euphoria gimmick 
in the blood that causes you to worship 
iconoclast illusion on the sidelines, 
committing mopery, idolatry in slow 
motion swan dive to the street.
