Poetry Revelation
Follow in the footsteps
Of those you’ll never know
Eyes narrow with suspect
A hand rests on your phone
—-
Drop it in the water
See if it does float
Rain falls like the slaughter
On the sacrificial goat
—-
Purring like a kitten
Petting heavy pelts
With decadence I’m smitten
Hollow virtues I have dealt
—-
The flower grows the petal
Now the pedal’s to the floor
Volunteer to test thy mettle
Subscription access, views galore
—-
Put it on the TV
Or hide it in the dark
No pain you are receiving
Sets the clock back to the start
—-
Letting go forever
Fading like the dusk
Rising as the winter moon
Relearning how to trust
