In what darkness hours do I ponder of incantations
Of harping misfortunes hidden behind a knowledge eye;
Their sorrows are of nocturnal winds blowing the roofs,
Passing in a same dirge in ancient eyes weary and irksome.

a trundled heart
   a morosed soul
   a stifled spirit

                 he loiters on the decrepit lot
              ransacking peckishly for hoard
   donned with sleazy drabs

                slumbering in curbs and culverts
   the morrow mundane with stagnancy
                      beseeching their modus operandi

                      hovering the prospects their status quo
                   to them a siver-lining is but a reverie
hope a four letter word

tranced in gutter wretched for ever
   trill`ng dirges mock their faculty
   the living dead

                            the dead weight
                         the loafers
the smouldering pyres

   all span marked to ruin
   ...signifying nothing.

Melissa,
My catalyst.
My lack of strength,
I deem you Melissa –
For the one who brought me to this party,
Then disappeared
And left me here alone.

How did I let you become so important
To allow myself to choose this,
To turn to something I'd never –
Something I'd always viewed with disgust?

And even still,
It's disgusting
And dirty
And beneath me.
And now I am what I disgust.

I let it seep in,
And now it's in my skin,
Under my skin
It got in.
