Carpet squishes beneath eager toes
Worms digging beneath the soil––
Filling the cavities of our eyes,
Planting thoughts which spread like mold
Over the Creatures who coil around streetlight poles;
They dance across midnight streets
Bask on the edge of twilight, seize wandering souls
I'll fall and fall and fall beneath the greed
Of the fires that burned down my home
But only ash remains, only soot is left
I crawl across highways for empty places to roam,
Scoop up litter tucked into steel vents
Washed by rain and black storm
I scribble down forgotten words once said
Some call me mad, some call me terror
But until the stars are dead,
––All said and done
My cold skin to burn forever,
I'll always be
gushing the red of my blood
