his thoughts omitted
ceremonies held but
there was no worship,
he gnawed on sacrifice
'til he chipped his tooth
and then he swallowed it.
lo she yonder wails at he
with butterflies to swell!
"and all of life is meaningless,"
he rues himself to hell.
her notion flickers
a black hole in Florida,
quiet love existing in
two time zones,
she eats from Eden
blasphemy ridden
on the calvary of
gentlemen;
he listens faintly
the church bells ringing
his throat dry
fingertips numb
and all the angels are singing.
he writes her
an obituary
on the back
of his hand,
she untouchable
defeats death
holds him dear
bows her head,
but still he says,
"all the world is dead."
