Peak
peak
of
the
the
on
grand
sunset
canyon
glorious
legacy strata of carrion
carry on
vultures prey on dead flesh
we’re circling vultures
closing in on prosperity
on the rooftops
why is rioting > murder?
police brutality, fires across the city
infectious disease we call
death
it’s like people think that they
don’t have a choice
what is amoral
compass
after all
there’s nothing that points you in the right
direction
spinning arrows
police
firemen
people dressed in suits that say
‘I help’
credit card fraud
racism
murder
dusted away in dark streets
who would fear me?
beige lime green
sharp rocks
ice pick
how hard would it be to survive with a frozen heart
no machine pumping victories
arteries pulsing
even Raskolnikov’s tool of choice was
intended to end something living
ice is cold
dead
rigid
immobile
preserves everything holds a lock on time
standing on the edge of the canyon between
life
and
death
bloodied rocks in the sun
Aeolus beckoning you with
two hands
into the abyss
Nietzsche knows his voice
from darkness
am I painting a red sunset fence on the rocks
with blood?
come join me
