choked- never knew a thing about itchoked by ~SixAndViolets
or felt any kind of subtle ache, or nuance
never saw a coloured sky or felt
the cloying weight of a warm summer
never met anyone quite like -
the hum of crickets that fills an empty night
sleeping
under a cold moon, and
a blanket of darkness
with a throat full of cotton
wool and useless words
never had the courage
never reached a hand into the galaxy
to feel the icy stillness of space
or the warmth of the stars,
so like -
never said i, never said love, never said you

in the darkit must be human nature;in the dark by ~SixAndViolets
the reason the Bible
and countless shelves of self-help books
warn us away
from sex and hallucinogenic
drugs and
Nietzscheist philosophy -
to keep us from realising how alone we are.
and that we've been abandoned
by the divine creator,
by the universe,
by the shrinks we pay $100 an hour
to feign empathy,
and they all
want to keep us
in the dark;
pseudo-spiritually emaciated
like the seekers of false enlightenment,
starved
of the forbidden fruit.

miles without waterwemiles without water by ~SixAndViolets
are walking miles
without water
waiting at bus stops
left in the dust
panting in the heat
like a dog
and the air is thick with smoke
and exhaustion
on this old earth
the soil
is red with memory
but holds no water
dropping like flies
in the summer
we're waiting
for our last days
and the flat plains
of the desert
do not allow
for an echo
or the resonating cry
of mothers made
to bury their children
in the orange sand.
