As the sun peeks over the hell fire sky
and pours misery over the earth,
I part my lashes
White light hits my eyes
piercing, piercing
drying life out of my being.
I’m trapped in this snare of coerced existence-
an experiment,
a breathing guinea pig.
A flame of darkness burning at my core
throwing shadows over light
consuming my heart.
Darkness running in my veins,
grey smoke whispering within
taking over all that is light
seeping in, seeping in
Devouring futility,
defecating void
Crying streams of acid
as lids recoil
Darkness, oh, darkness
embrace me in my tomb,
Missing souls haunting
as I exhale black fumes.
The darkness, churning within
Death punishing the living
motionless, I lay
leaving my insides to decay.
