Worthless [April 16, 2017]A Poem by Dillan Courtright
Crowded streets consume hopeless dreams
Corrupted gold steals, rivers become streams Worthless beings banished, broken by fiends Promises laced open, arteries bleed free Hearts pumping ink, poison-stained anguish Quills drip onto paper, all traces vanish Thoughts slowly disappear, a distorted canvas Twisted madness transformed deformed misshapen sadness Harassed cruelly, misguided torment annihilates the mind Contained within an asylum, shackled vastness confined Shattered emptiness swallows fear, insanity driven blind Decay crumbles away, chains reverberate shallow decline Deteriorating steel rusts, frozen grains resume counting time Radioactive bars disintegrate, evaporating their sickening crime Eroding cells collapse, withering bitter resentment forgetting lies Fools rupture silent dread, fracturing emotional fabricated demise Flood gates burst aside, exposing rotten corpses buried alive Burial mounds subside, testifying denied truth deprived Sacrifices revived, divided liars welcome falsified alibi Until tools are in pieces, embracing awaited suicide © 2017 Dillan Courtright |
