DownfallA Poem by R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)I little piece I made when I wasn't able to write well. Can't say I'm happy with it.Downfall Dawn-falls feathers of ebony Armageddon My arteries are chains, and I’m caked my own downfall, mishappen Unlike their painted faces, erasure Complacent to the mayhem of a frayed daydream Empty paperclip borderline gemini dropping flies like spitfires flatlining Catapulted winter solstice rigour mortis chloroforming aurora borealis The amalgamated Valkyries flaying gradient revelations Of the ancient glaciers that thawed in the eons of the dominatrix Agathions disgraced by the godless immortal soul Without eternal love for the ethereal cerebral frequencies Mountain-peaking through the skyscrapers hallucinations Of man holding God broken in his glass palace polyphonic glossolalia hands As if it was our right to remake the heavens in our name And call ourselves gods Raging Ragnarok Rorschach’s against the machine we built in denial Of our impure humanity Scarring the armada of our sin Graffitiing our image across the earth Building over the birthmarks Tattooing the universe another shade of grey Industrializing existence And the people, they are flowing through my veins though I do not bleed Because I am not greedy; or wasteful for a hatred that was not earned on this earth And I will not pour myself out until the words run dry Only then will I be sated When the last flush of green burns the dirt violet, vermillion, sanguine The city crawling under our skinheads Maybe I will be born again; a better man © 2020 R.J Calzonetti (SinisterPotatoe)Author's Note
