1/9/21

wretch



rusted and yellowed
the mouth of morning
opens
exhaling onto
the imperfect body of
an unassuming wretch

god within me is
an everlasting monologue
and i arise
to walk along this path
in mumbling soliloquy

god upon me 
blisters acidic and
devours to the bone
as i struggle
to keep pace in this
state of atrophy


tonight
i will lie down
before the eyes of night
freed from this 
faux temple

tonight i will expose
the death of body

opened, exhaling

god released
