Simply Beyond Help
Zounds!
longing for a
merciful descent into
the terminal ground
where smoky eyes
semi-watch
streams of
semi-(dis)information
exhaled from
smoking brains
on a mission
to search &
deconstruct
ticking clocks
taunt
timely bombs
lost in
purple blobs
of
orange haze
awaiting
purging deluges
sprinkled with
white bolts of
blinding hell
the raving
raven's
feathers flicker
while
flippant tentacles
grope skyward
for
divine decisions
tickling
a sickly brain
that
bemoans
its feckless fate
we shall overwhelm
a sizzling planet
striving for
brief moments of holiness
in a pit of
squirming soothsayers
de-coupling
from
determinism
becoming
tomorrow’s
sorrow
Mercy me!
a pseudo-prayer
crawls out of
a mournful mouth
(“help me Help MeHelpMe!!”)
muttering
monotonic mantras
replete with
rollicking ruminations
reverberating from
titanic implosions
in the dark
deep sea of
terrible time
In conclusion...
simply
beyond
Help
