BREAK UP

Your shiny brow, my love, speaks more than speech

My flat reflection predicts our final breach

We who were one

Becoming none


A would be king dissolves the people

Elected God’s champion from ecstatic steeples

You love our leader more than courage itself

Children, parents, me, unrivaled wealth


Your preening, cooing master

Molds and melds superb disasters

Asks you serve, perform your duty

Naked, surrounded by beauty

While you and I, surpassed by farce

At night watch our truth sneak out by hearse


Cold blanks my chest, feels the ice in your eyes

Allure flakes off, drizzles down, dies

This digital loving life too rich to run

For this lone old bastard and your political nun


I hear you

I crave you

I pander

I fall

I won’t

I can’t

Nothing at all
