Many Bodies

Every pretty bit, line collage with fashions stated

Why look upon, when not a word is uttered at all

Beyond the vale, a screen of witless intoxicants

Allowing you, allowing me, to exchange a word in passing

The carelessness, the rampant ineptitude

A stifling force that wires jaws to stillness

All for the best, because my words tend to be

the most vile and toxic thing to drip from my being

Endless complaining, without a reason for a frown

Desperate for someone to ask a simple question

At a constant loss, and I tend to generate

every single obstacle that needs attending to

But life will expire, and soon thought will cease

Worries and woes can no longer burden me

Below the tousled soil, above on busted knees

Eventually I think, I'll find the end that I seek.

Let's get sad all over again.
