THE GRASS STILL BENT WHERE THE BODIES ONCE LIED.

CUT DEAD BY TONGUE, DEATH BY THE PARALELL OF A MEASURE

WHICH IS,,, MINE.

I'M FEARFUL AT DRAWING PARALELLS AND IT IS FEARFUL MORE TO LIE.

THOSE FOREST DAYS, PROTECTED DAYS

A LIFE DESIRED BY THOSE FACE DOWN IN THE GRASS.

THEY WILL NOT HAVE IT.

CAN NOT QUELL WHAT WAS ONCE,

MINE.

IDEAS SPELL THEMSELVES OUT.

INNOCENSE (eschelons)

THE DENSE FOG SMUDGING IN FROM THE COAST

VAGUE RAINBOWS APPEAR GETTING MUDDLED AT MOST

AND IT IS THOUGHT "UNWHOLESOME" TO THINK;

HOW OUR EARTH REMAINS IN PLACES.

BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAIN BEACH LAKE FORESTS STILL EXIST.

THEY STILL EXIST AND NOT ONLY IN PICTURES.

WE STAY HOME AND THE CHIMENEY CHOKES OUT BLACK SPEW

PLUMES NOT UNDERSTOOD AS THEY WAFT LOW ACROSS THE NOSE OF THOSE

LAID OUT IN THE GRASS.

LIKE A MANNEQUIN YARD OF SALVAGE

IT IS MY JUNKYARD !!!

OF FETCHING FEFLLOWS AND SELF IMPORTANT WHORES

OF THE VENACULAR ACTUALIZED

AND MY DISTANCE FROM CHRIST.

OUR POLLUTANTS BEGIN TO BREECH THE FOG

ACROSS PINETOPS AND UPON THE LAWN

THE CHIMENY SHIT AND THE FOG HOLD HANDS

DEFEATING , PENETRATING,

THE COLD DEAD NOSTRILS

AS ICE FORMS ON THE GRASS THAT'S BEEN BENT

IT'S NOT HAPPENSTANCE FOR THE ONE WHO IS SENT.

SO BRING FORTH THE DARKNESS

OUR SPEW BLACKENS THE SUN

DEAD 

BUT HIS WRISTWATCH IS STILL TICKING

AS THE BODIES ARE REMOVED

 AS THE GRASS REMAINS,,,,,,,,

 BENT.
