Windom Earle

sister screams you're all against me
forceful takedown expresses love
button pressed permission denied
break from conscious to survive the roar
black fades to green
fades into light
too much time spent in watching hands unchanging strange new scrapes sky
every week and leaves familiar stains
sharp pain a wish for snow inside
like red ants within the skull
it's raining again
it's strange here
it falls with a passion where most have none
it troubles me
this bed corrupts
i'm losing sleep
saw a face that i once knew
had a name i could attach
can't recall from where it came
but i still feel ashamed for hating it
