Silent Retribution

let's start an underground church

| connect | share | support |


Bred to boredom and syphilis

That dreaded disease penetrating 

To the brain as an alien species

Broadcasting death to R-selected


The doctors build not cases

But juries against the patient

Whose life would turn towards rot

Buried under putrid anti-natality


Those children of the devil lost

To the dream of existence beautiful

Apothecary of willow caskets

Bourne by pallbearing nurses


Can we escape this simulation

Of violent despondent perturbation

Brought on by choice to survive

The inevitability of bacterial stain?


And could the vulnerability of man

By superstitious deference to needle

Inserted into my bare ass to them

The female cohorts of indeniability


For the fear of death by possession

Betrayed in confidence my selfish

Desire to maintain power over God

Blackmailed by scrubs and Danskos

Last Poem - God and Gaiety | New Poems | Alphabetical Poems

---

This poem was written in Aurora, Colorado, United States, North America on June 13, 2023 while on shift as a security guard.

My last poem is entitled "God and Gaiety" which is just about nature and friendship.

Thanks for reading. I'm currently assembling all my published poems into a physical binder. I've edited and printed up to the letter "F" so far, if you're interested in seeing it turned into a book let me know.
