And the Willow Weeps

Falling,

  Spiraling

     Abyss eats a corpse

Darkness becomes friend

Iron and manure placed on pulse points whiffing perfume

Are those roots dancing with devil?

Wine passed around me, you and the thing

Intoxicate make dizziness newest dance craze

Mildew surrounds senses sun up, sun down

Dredging up past lives

Tears fall upon earth watering weeds, perhaps wild strawberries

When organic, lies we hear

Promises never kept

How ironic living can be

Parading facades about town

Will children learn

Will earth morn

Will we ever be alive

Just a piece of sand blowing in wind

Beautiful flowers, or are they

Children will forget

How much that makes us weep

Watching, listening, roll over and over and over

I’ve had enough

Blind with light
