Decision
A Poem by Matthew Bass
Smoke in the spring mist sticks to your throat in slimy membranes. The weight of the cross-walk cracks and screams under the deafening gravity of your conscience choking you, slowly; with one more step one more thought one more moment passing you by. You wait, eternally for the intertia to slam your frail self through the tumbling sky. - The same dream from the night before because there is a process to gently pull you, a diseased cow poked measured analyzed The body moves forward the brain doesn´t. "Do not lean against walls" "Do not speak" "Disobedience is dealt with quickly and violently" (You) The first number before and endless stream of zeros. |
