Pareidolia

October 30, 2017



my garden grows
 the very best 
of intentions
all lined up 
along the road to hell

Lust and dust
mix and mingle
in the histories

I lurk
like the spider stalking
a fly carcass 
crackling on the web
waiting watching wanting 

to remain ignorant
savor trust
like salted caramel
melting on my tongue

or to take the bait
 and bite down
hard
on the truth

This knowing fruit

sours
the soup
stiffens
scum into skin

on the surface
I see the face 
of broken promises
in the grey pucker
