The psychic tattoo
of paternity
darker than
fate’s blackest ink
The guilted knife
of maternity
cutting you
near to the brink
A prodigy alone
in the shadows
offspring of
scorn and disdain
Begging for love
and acceptance
from parents
— called heartache and pain
(Dreamsleep: June, 2025)
to the knowing of lies
and the buildings of goodbyes
in not relying on how
only poetry indents and cow
none doth go without
shallow pools of salt and drought
yet the agile defeatest's tower
criminaling the dangerous boughe
yeasts beneath rotten waters
stirring none salve and bothered
the witnesses of the guillotines
unclean and guiltied behind that door
looking around,
all that is seen are the ruins of the life before this moment.
searching for guidance.
received are the
torn pictures,
bruised walls,
fractured ceilings
of a broken childhood.
the dark side;
my dark side.
facing the truth with love or with guilt.
the guidance was never received.
captured by what was thought of as guilted love
you brought me to the light side.
