Crypt Fugitives

Crypt Fugitives

A Poem by Tasi83



  
In our world, sparkling stars shine here and there incessantly.
 Our stars shine in our stars,
 in our stars, in our stars.
 Each vain mirror is also a slavish,
 disgraced shipwreck of itself,
 like the truer but tearful eye
 under the mascara of mascara, 
which can never lie again.

Like illuminated lamps, 
the spiky coral of islands
 beneath the diva's and the dandy's downy feet,
 he who does not look hard enough, 
or thinks too highly of himself, will stumble.

The incarnate hieroglyphics
 of our language, once of the days
 of the eye, are still jealously
 guarded by a few prophet-writers,
 relegated to ivory towers.
 They demand the introduction
 of new censorship rules in the currish,
 while mummy-voiced crypt-runners
 with their scalpel-snouts
 negate and persecute unsuspecting fugitives.
 No amount of loyalty-demonstrating morality
 or hand-holding empathy is worth anything,
 at most on the surface.

Diamond necklaces balance
 on the beautiful but mab lines
 of alabaster necklaces,
 while the golden ear pendants
 outbid each other in the twisted,
 proud light while juggling for new acrobatic feats.
 To no avail! Long ago, 
career-killing, narcissistic sociopaths
 and naked angel prostitutes
 were forced to balance,
 because they will always
 have to survive on the wheel of the revolving world,
 and if necessary,
 become famous and great by betrayal.
 Every brain with a nut to crack
 could do with some cultural shaping,
 not just a moral law in the flesh
 or a devious plot.
 All careers are doomed,
 and will sink in the end!
