ON THE ROCKS

 

I fell into the sky.

cannoned cumulous clouds of

 

APATHY

 

caused catastrophic cataracts of

 

CYNICISM

 

which drowned all existence

 

I flew above the storm

to the Tor of Happiness

 

I looked down

 

the blasphemy beckoned

and misery mocked my plump soul

as I prayed to the Earth to learn

 

angels sang

 

hymns of MISERY

 

foul beasts crawled forward

and smiled with crooked mouths dripping

 

VENOM

 

the laughter lifted me

 

then flung my body onto the rocks of

 

PITY

 

open eyes stared to a heaven

 

blind to the broken bones.

 

crushed ears rang to the

 

percussion of epiphany

 

which meant NOTHING!

 

even though

 

I’d been searching for it

 

FOREVER.
