you've got riot creeping
up your throat; reckless, wire-bent
brain jostled at the start
and stop phenomena.

it came from the chest, an impulse fragility

an acreage of scorched earth sculpted
in teethmarks of smooth skinned velvet lovers.

we knew the cries of figurine effigies
would haunt us, crackling like shells
in the smokescreen

and the peeling in the cell walls will show your shadow
in vacancies and doubt.
diving through self, swimming against current
upstream, down-spiraling

Really liked a lot of the lines in here,

      So I took ten minutes to write a remix, through my own self experience!

*looks better centred*

Priscilla's torn appendage

Heart ransom love's captive sick

Behind a creeping hate throat stuck riot

A jostling monologue of vocal discord

Seething from once beautiful lips

The captions of chivalry

Gone horribly amiss


Fragile loose bruised teeth marks

Scorched the acreage of the sculpture

A once smooth epidermis velvet cocoon

Bruise intoxicated bent mind wire

Fist abducted phenomena

Weeks gone wrong


Black & white

Figurine effigy images

Haunt our smokescreens

No longer emotion terror able

To ghost in a marionette shrapnel hide

From the peeling memory ache

Vacancies of crying shadows

From lives like love

We ignored
