The man after eating all the animals

on earth and putting out eruct,

and making them extinct,

is taking initiation to write,

other planets’ organism’s forecast.

*******************

Humans are quite interesting

Often coming up with new words to describe everything

Proving no two people feel the same way about the same things

That they can draw connections between the unrelated

Calling the moon a spirit

And the ocean, a body

That today, I can call the world my own

Yet tomorrow, someone will come up with another way

We till the soil of ancients

Generations, laid to rest

From whom we are descendants

We breathe their ash and dust

We tread the earth beneath us

Ancestral, hallowed ground

Their blood cries out for justice

Spilled sorrow seeps, resounds

We hope for futures, brighter

Denying truth and past

In hubris, our wills smite her —

“Earth will always last”

One word will spark a fire

Consuming all that’s brass

Her precious gold survives her

The rest, burned up like chaff

I curse you for lying through your teeth. For ignoring my blind beliefs. For not seeing my broken heart for tearing my world apart. I cursed you to be filled with nihilism so inflated you would beg to be incarcerated. I cursed you for keeping me close. For the hatchet by the bed. For the blood prints in your head. I curse you for never caring not when I had to nurse you back to health all these terrible years basking in your glory denying the real story banking on a mystery.

Got to tell you I cursed you for that kiss, for that wish for yelling at me and wrecking my car for stealing my guitar and my phone for leaving me alone in that apartment grown tired of being raped I cursed you for taking me down and I cursed you for trying to break that spell I cursed you too well. I cursed you with my city’s embers I gutted you like a fish with your final wish I threw you to the fire with your story but don’t worry I cursed your mother your father your aunt and your uncle. I filled up the witch bottle with things to remind you and crushed you with my rage just to unwind you.

I outdid your inspired pride because I was empty inside. I threw you in the dumpster with your religion. I made a final incision like a lobotomist. I made you so much like me woulda swore you were a pacifist. I cursed you because you are a fuck boy and a bitch. Now you are dying and you’ll die alone see they’re not coming for you they’re coming to ruin your lovely tattered dreams.

Can’t hear your cruel whispering above my screaming. You’re a joke how my heart broke was just a casualty in this awful war between whore and victim of a worlds insanity. I curse you for crying. I curse you for trying. No good comes to those who hate the fool. You might have seen the lovers you might have seen the ghosts; or heard the sound of falling glass shattering your fucking mind leaving a grey cloud of dust behind you. I cursed you to give me your soul. Just need to remind you.

Over thousands of years

The stairs go from flat and straight and proud

To sipped in and droopy and filled with sorrow

The once magnificent steps

Crushed in by a billion pairs of feet

Each one leaving its own impact

On the fallen from grace steps

This is what happens when one exists

As a stepping stone for others

You get worn down until

There’s nothing left anymore.
