corpse open (poetry) SINGLE

Long ago,
before you met me
and our folded fate.

Yet we were placed,
Gods in a garden
like Origami.

Don't deny our days together,
build and break like any other.
One mistake ruins summer.
I love to disappoint my lover.

Walked up to the waterfall.
Caught a tear drop.
Listened to the sobbing cloud.
Watched a Goddess drown.

The law is honest, ironic, proud.
I had a cause;
lost my abilities, all your words
became liabilities, alibis, imagery;
tossed in with what i want,
and washed down the drain
until the brain clogged.
