black eyed susans - bending out into the ocean
the shadowed doll curtains veined
light tappings of porcelin blue china
cracked tea cups smiling
dust bunny draped chandeliers - cobwebbed print gleaming in the sun
fingers nervously twitching down braids
stroking cellos
and i see you on the porch and the altar,
practicing vows
dusty velvet jackets, top hats & grinning smiles
firewood slowly crackling as we lay on patterned couches
- crumpling as we move
the facade of welcome in our abandoned mansion
we clawed our way through fallen houses
homely until the zombies go away
our canned food collection slowly dwindling
still its just me & you & the rats & roaches
and that's all i need
as bodies sway faintly
as dust dances in the streaks of light
looking at me with flat glass eyes and painted lips
our bodies breathing
as we succumb into our new forever
