There is no light in these caverns of the flesh So I paint blindly in the ancient darkness The air is thick with fear The earth is wet with longing And death is swimming in the sweat of every moment No god has overseen this dark night of the soul Beneath my skin flows the river of my suffering If I could silence this desire to be loved I'd wither peacefully alone in my surrender If I could kill the starving animal within me I'd waste away in the numbness of the famine Life exists within the interstitial realm Where thirst and terror are eclipsed by the communion Of twin desperations in the grip of chemical empathy If only death could be just as beautiful

Every meaningless day feeds larval thoughts of the end Death has laid her eggs in the thorns of my experience Was it the desert soil, or was it my decrepit seed? I rot in my dark contemplation, explaining what will never change I fold my hands, and vacuously pray With all the hope my sorrow fails to muster My thoughts emerge in gnashing of the teeth And all to say that words will never raise the dead A smoke rises from the pit where flesh smolders into ash I gather all that I can find, but nothing becomes of what has passed What fool struggles to persist when cursed with all-consuming pain, When truth ceases to exist and the mind is eroded in the rain?
