Fruition Glow
We wish to be
immortal
so unwilling
to give up the ghost
dying slow
waiting for
that fruition glow
one moment in a lifetime
of virtue and sin
reveals all that ever was
blowing in the wind
the burning of leaves don’t matter much
spoils of you bake in the sun
buried deep
but not enough
reveals just another gathering of guts
all is well as the buzzards feed
perched on your skull
you will see
putrid incarnations
ourselves in past
future clinging
to hopes that can not last
..and its okay
to not know
which way is home
they would never leave
never leave
maybe they were never here
were they never at all?
were they never?
it was said
that Hell
is other people
Hell is other.
and its okay
to die alone
with all our
beautiful
ugly scars
we all need
need to be
we fall from grace
and become real
no sorrow, can we love?
no joy, can we weep?
no light, can we hide
from the darkness deep?
with all our lesions
beautiful
ugly
we all need to feel
our meaning is alive

Homunculus
within my head
another head
that holds what is
dear to me
this thing I have never seen
this thing I have never believed
behind my eyes
lies in wait
something untried
something unnamed
why can’t you see it?
why can’t you feel it?
and pull it out from within
and let me
awaken
my head cracks
and spews forth
blood
panic
and sulfur
what will we find inside?
head within another head
what if he tells the truth?
and leaves me as good as dead
behind my eyes
lies in wait
something untried
something unnamed
doctor
forceps
grasp and tug
I think I have him now
lay down
cold steel table
open our eyes
what do we see here?
uncarved soul
reached in
and pulled you out
now you look scared
helpless full of doubt
now you shed
your shadow
a breath can’t soul
but a soul can breathe
ask me a riddle
and I reply
cut to the bone
I’m cut open
and I’m free
of inner tyranny
found tranquility
uncarved soul
welcome home
year by year I must come undone
pull into me all the stars and their dust
open my body, my heart, my skull
and from the ether, a noiseless lull
what is your upmost dire believe?
its time to release it
throw it in the sea
unbeknownst
I am a vessel
incipient
the hero you will know
creating great loss
within our mirrors
reach in the dark
burning with fear
we eat our flesh
and shed our shadows
uncarved soul
welcome home
