ABSENCE OF MIRTH
Absence of mirth
the spirituality of dejection
siphon/moon glow
harness
I still remember the after effect
of the focused beady singular wonder
pushed aside and taunted
in a direction of sidelined
stampeding look the other way
match my muddling composure
entrenched in pulled apart
stuttering after glow
don't throw the baby out with the bath water
oops, we already did
stricken and afflicted with
tendrils of
exposure to intravenously fed blasphemy
infected to the brim
in an overflowing monstrosity
gauging and sizing up
the tingling locked in gaze
of pelting onlookers
beating the presence of fed by fire
constrained gloated trepidation
nailed to a makeshift cross
preside over the fallen backstabbing inverted
arbiter of rail gun testimony
placated by greedy rebel rousers
bury my heart at wounded knee
and all that
purple heart throw away
