Stones mass stillness wept upon
Two sow cold accusations against a once fearful sun
Burnt ashes calmly scatter apart
Endless veins of paralyzed uncertainty
Inquisitions pray solely on the minds of
Those so bent on casual liberation
Instincts jealous over savage appetites chosen
Chaste waters embittered over meaningless fornication
Ignorant denial muted for days perspired till wet
Emptiness quietly shedding the mask of mutually chosen flesh
Thorns moistly caress late winters scorned
Sweetness sickened the memory of that which it adored
Inner stars once naively bright dead
Inner beasts fattened still hungry fed
Inner truths sold bartered trusts
Inner echoes crave the human touch
