Legitimate Salvage

If you prick me do I not bleed insides come spilling out like weeds tangled, feral, noxious - still creating patterns that never will be replicated, try or not this tangled mess is all we've got Fatalism? Of course one may etch the outcome into clay limestone, talc cliffs, iron, rust all eventually turn to dust the end is the beginning  until it's the end all's not over til it's over my friend Slates can be cleared and cleaned with care all the instruments are there an honest day's work for an honest day's pay alas, honesty's not something you parlay not a trick for a parlour that you can play on me I know too much and Too much can i see The tapestry woven with threads of my soul tattered and tainted you took it all Painted a future that was always a fake such an impressionist talents on display isolate me, convince me i was crazy ever the saint tolerating my mayhem no matter how 'terrible' everything became you'd stick it out 'ride or die...

ashes

twin Towers; twin flames

buried in an unmarked grave

ash to ashes dust to dust

where love's rose wilts

blooms contempt's rust

serpiginous and prehistoric

forked tongue, road, truth

for guts and glory

spin the wheel; desperate play

of mice and men 

gang gaft agley

a thousand? 

no 

just ten and two

can spell you out

this cursed closed loop

this house of love

that Theseus built

atop the bones of Catholic guilt 

Hail Mary, fool of grace

lie straight to her fucking face

Cassandra sees the truth you try

to hide with your mouth 

behind your eyes

bury your dagger

unto the hilt

then claim it's not

MY blood you spilt

blades twisted 'til the wound's complete

it will not heal until you meet 

me halfway on the way to truth 

something that you cannot do

things will always fall apart

the centre never holds

better things were never possible

left out here in the cold

only did i learn the truth

once it was far too late

the lessons might priceless

but the cost was far too great
