Silent RiotA Poem by Phillip J ClaytonWithout a fist there's no voice; Thorns hook into flesh; Rip away the fabric of a reality; Purest form of divine darkness; Follow me. Sleep... Like demons leaving a possessed soul; It evades me. Death lurking, watching my torture. Pain... A seductive mistress; Eyes bleed fear of what I could become; Tongues lick my ear; Whimpers and whispers; Come in. Solitude... In a cell; The heart is heavy, tainted with filth; Bile fills my lungs; Drag blades across eyes; Take what's yours, leave the rest. Take Christ from the cross; Blood stained sheets; A goblet of fire, flesh made to bread; Kneel like fools, observe the smile. Fake halos and devil's breath; Your God's Duct tape; Believe the word... Ssshhh fork tongues speaking. Believe in man, you failed again. © 2013 Phillip J Clayton |
