Break and breathe
a getaway train
for the tripping
speeds

into a station unmapped
relapsed again
here comes the frame
again to blend
in when spin
has unspun
a friend

deleted unsettled
a franchise unfettered
i wish i'd come sooner
when dying was less
in

forget to forget
all the way home
akin to skin
amend
amen.

The wasting

A drifter
shapeshifter
approaches
soul sister
explains existence
in a word or two
sharing...
we are the dead

bodies walking
stumbling into a promised
systematic failure
without a hint of redemption
nor guarantee of a life
less fleeting
at moment’s end

we are the wasting
a dripping sickness
a mass of cells
coming apart
on the basis of day
slipping away
a slow decay
this time untamed

death is irrelevant
when death is so prevalent
and the fact that
we medicate suggests
life is not evidence
of an existence 
benevolent.
