Cutting Moments

Cruel are the eyes the gaze with night vision, with thermal-sight
Gazes extending endlessly to all corners
Warping around walls, seeing through windows, tint or no
No, the violations have gone for far too long
Yet inescapable they are
There is no escape, truly
but if there is, it would be found only in death
I butcher myself, in more ways than one
My forearms, my thighs, my belly
Taking the appearance of a torturers plaything
Eyes sink lazily in their sockets
And as they roll too far to each side the dizziness sets in
The ethos of mankind is separate from I
In this sole, cold spot in the world wherein they cannot remain
Species outdo themselves and encircle us
Condemn the human and revere the ape and simian
Leap from it, leap from the heights of their faux grandeur
There is nothing shared in their accomplishments
They will even sell you the rope to hang yourself

South of Salem

It is sickening - their outreach
Barbed taloned hands reaching out to grab the helpless
They will never touch me.
My skies are imagined; they are immaculate
All that I craft is for the eyes of the blind;
The ears of the deaf
The tongues of the tasteless
The mouths of mutes.
A pit, a tomb, where no light can enter
Devoid of the industry of hope
Solace is found in isolation
Solace is found in solitude
My world(s) are stricken with a deep, unending famine
Deficient in lifemarrow
I am outstretched into a nothingness, compelled to masquerade as worldly
My dreams are like no other, yet are just as distant
The sun cannot be snuffed, so it yet burns
Biting and stinging its way right down to the nerve
How much of it is there be? You're about to find out
It's always closer than you think.
