Elvis-worm
Eternity comes when you’re out of breath,
breathless paralytic
 your stone deaf,
when the funny stroke is due,
your body melting too,
all part of the deef n deaf,
an overheated you,
is left, the flaccid blue,
Elvis worm the building left,
Bugger, 
No diddle-dum diddly too,
Bereft,
bay-lou…

she was stone deaf and he proposed to her,
she heard it not and ignored the offer,

a tale of him, her and sound barrier!

Tears fall that I cannot make 

Trembling legs but I do not shake

Screaming pain but I feel numb

Loud cries but I am always dumb

Seeing it all but I am truly blind

Thoughtful heart but Loving unkind

Breathing fast without a single breath

Living forever but dying a quick death

Knowing it all but not learning a thing

Stone deaf but I still hear you sing...

There was soft
purring. Inviting  but malicious,
when you entered the cave.

A bittersweet encounter.
Quantified. A new dna print
after a cyber attack.

Another turn of the Venus.
The whole world
has never been the same.

Anatomy of violence
was shaping the
future bêtes noires.

Stupid thing, our roots
still commingled with dust
searching the stone-deaf god.
