NO ESCAPE
And it doesn’t
matter what they say
how they try to
fight against it
pretend worlds going
up in smoke
flying apart like
last year’s leaves
shredded and
forgotten
fertilizer for the
next crop
because the Truth
faces us every day
square in the eyes
there is no
escaping the cycle
I am life and
death
the sublime
simplicity
ticking away like
clockwork
every agony down
to the second
every triumph
perfectly synchronized
every part played
beautifully
the divine actors perpetually
gracing the stage
What do the
charlatans know of this?
their world of
confetti trod into the sewers
like blackened slush from Winter's sorrow
