A LOVE LETTER FROM A FAILED GENERATORA Poem by kublakhan2711 19 13I. Inside a meltdown of aggrieved metaphors we met and made the best of icy memories You were the apex of a sullen candle wick's heated umbrella passing for protection from the typhoon of toxicity corroding the artificial lights I resorted to in search of happiness II. Sickened by the cynicism I could never conquer without aid the shrill wheeze in my lungs stabbed the air of my resigned ignition like an acid rain-rusted fork Prongs of erosion incinerated the dimensions of my Great Pretender mask I was open to the prospect of a meltdown III. A power outage smirked on the verge of threatening my need for Winter white to blind the pile-up of humid months eroding my incentive for an age's elevation Then you came puncturing the black aura I was all too ready to adopt I am already obligated to the grey threshold it would appear yet the parasol of your embrace stifled my corrosion of closure like the blinders of a race horse Simply through your place in my obstructed vision's show you have won me until I realize I'm out of candles and the metaphors incline me to reach around until I clutch your heated cage of nightvision
