Clocks chiming,
Hours climbing,
Still I wait -
Anticipate
My future fate
Another date
Onward priming
Trying to bait
But it takes timing

Tales of those the ancient times
A rigmarole of bygone crimes
History progressed and churned
Yet what if any has been learned
Mistakes of yore we now repeat
Lesser of men the loudest bleat
Begrudging brother and his child
The golden calf reborn and styled

'Tween the muck and gloom
Where frogs croak and gators loom
Cattails in full bloom

Destiny post manifest
Far overgrown
A copse ready for thinning
Kindling for the fire

Shells of former self
Like a snake I shed those skins
Reborn by the quill

Living on the cusp
Something new
Something great
The penumbra of success
It allures me
It eludes me
Just as stars in night skies
Twinkling back at me
Though I never can reach

These bones shake
A cage carrying soul
Tempting fate
To come and take me whole
Swallow me into that abyss
Pressure me into coal
Too much I've seen
Too much I've felt
All innocence all stole

I dashed through my youth, oh no.

At times it becomes heavy
The weight of the all
The enormity of the every
Balustrades beneath you collapse
Wind screams past
Aeolian tunes surround
But there's beauty in this plummet
If one looks around
Your fellow fallen
All en masse
A sakura-fubuki of peril

The sea stretches open
This vessel thrashes and aches
The gnawing maw of Poseidon makes all things his prey
To what depths have we sunken?
I cannot fathom

Our freedom for sale
An emporium for the elite
Guardrails fail
Rich men find new ways to cheat

How could brother fight brother?

Grandpa worked the fields
He plowed someone else's meal
His country forgets

History of man
Tales of withered society
Dark seeps in
Contours a hollow body
Cultural collapse
The barrel of a gun
Humanity lost
Supernova of the sun
