2nd Glass

 

Weary eyed, darkness roots sweet, days fly in rains—the cult inside, the emoting, trying to understand the last mile; hindsight sisters, voices sullen and penetrating; so cold on it, deranged by it, bringing souls out of dungeons, just for silence.

I felt her words. One might go batty. Berserk alphabets, coarse reliance, incandescent waves, to waffle at the introduction. Adored it seemed, many ate meals, red snapper, shrimps, hushpuppies—if alert to it, remember it, the one last on the map.

The last page will read indemnity, decency, conquering the impossible—giving a damn about porn, tagging, living wildly, a person facing annihilation.

 

A lever pushed, a soul goes inward, the mind becomes aloof—from itself, its adversary, its math.

 

Each chapter with blood shed. Each accomplishment with mercy begging. Never easy as it seems for some. (Most entitled!)

 

I remain calm, semi-assertive, angered it ends this way.
