Integrity Is Unstitched: Structure Gave Up The Ghost

 

that you would do that, leave a soul panting at edges a dream cutting spheres.

gelid, listless, days are wheezing.

painting ambition, despite, red tape, it must feel terrific.

a minor man in a glass kingdom chipping his deliverance.

a tear contrite, a tear in repentance, rubbing his future.
