Dwelling in the dim
hallway – sounds echo – I am
lingering intent
hallway – sounds echo – I am
lingering intent
I fall on a whim
wiping sarcasm off and fill
my cup to the brim
wish to make a dent
they all do – bleeding white lamb
sacrifice is grim
universal lives
replicated on the web
of a spider’s mind
symbolism survives
in those of us left behind
watch for just used knives
stranger, help me find
my lost illusions – the ebb
and flow of pearl dives
lamp shades just for show
light bulbs made to conserve light
coffee without heat
I keep my head down low
avoid glances – in the end
we all take a bow
the sound of defeat
one hand clapping out of sight
watch your stock price grow.
