Taunted

Blood shot eyes, dark distant and disillusioned.

serrated strips of aching flesh where his heart

once beating, now silenced by insidious mirth.

 

Taunted by beauties plasticized arrogance, he

lay hidden in loneliness obscured and rejected.

His confidence shaken, his desire dilapidated

he ponders deep thoughts of everlasting doubt.

 

Exquisiteness avoids him, pestilence leading to

post-mortem, how much more shall I endure.

The love of a beautiful woman he beseeches,

will in no way be a staple in this poignant life.

 

Providence summons vague sacraments of

hopeful optimisms, surly to be pulverized by

beauties plasticized arrogance unaccompanied

and dismissed, he departs this life alone…
