Well Meaning Creatures
All my friends they are
Smiling faces
They are well meaning creatures
Preaching love and self respect
All my lovers stem from
Gardens of treason
Bloomed in eternal seasons
Of unearned guilt and self contempt
All my feelings they are
Cresting waves crashing
Shifting stones soothing
Foreign beaches sifting sand
All these quasars they are
Remnant traces
Of dying ages
Irreverent they hum and chant
All our futures shroud in
Mystics unfolding
Dark stones unclosing
Secret blossoms crimson red
All these days I've wasted
Blind meandering ponderings
Still I'm left wandering
Unstitching seams and fraying threads
