Exhumed



Digging up buried bones of the past,
formaldehyde memories ... crypt debris
Re-examining works long dead,
suspicions placed once again
under the microscope

Detect an exhumed lie,
skeletal remains 
of a premature buried alibi

Neurotic twisted logic 
Myelin tears fill the missing synapse link
of a soil carpet double helix

DNA nightshade tragic ...
(do not answer) the doorbell!
Just as life reassurances don’t always
double indemnity policy sell
Sometimes shovel singularity focus
can ne’er black hole end well

Emotional tug on the viol heartstring rug,
wipe the sin dirty guilt feet
No current, criminal behavior to speak of — 
the mental ill-will tombstone sealed
any regrets soul bittersweet
