Hands start to tremble-
Eyes rolling.
Let your body crumble-
Blood boiling.
Laugh your life away

Eyes rolling. Eyes rolling- back.
Colors churning- blacker blacker.
Fading. Fading- black.
"Damnit wake up! Please..."

She had a secret she wanted to

Alexander
For Riccardo...
Death falls over your grave and the birds sing
The ballad of angels on the battlefield
Death falls over your grave soil falls in
Marked by embroidered sword
The frowning face of history
Marked by the deeds of war
Alexander and history is no more
Beneath my fingertips ancient

The pieces are laid neatly out. No need to count as we sit across from each other. The pawn is the first to go but there are so many more. Standing blindly and deaf they are made quickly and cheaply. Expendable. Replaceable. Then the next is the knight. Loyal to a fault through sweet

As Da Vinci staring at a pure slab of marble with chisel in hand
Or Picasso before an empty easel during his Blue Period
So would my grandmother stand preparing her bread.
The tools of her craft would be laid out before her on the table:
