UNTITLED POEM
Introduction
Entropy and agony cascade over us
In a blanket of inevitability. Our
Wasted and flaccid bodies wracked
In our pity, the unwashed waste
Of failed days and missed opportunities
Neither one of us really seemed to
Care to wash away. Languid atrophy
A blissful existence, our reward for
Long moments of ambivalence and
Quiet apathy. Hard failures that
Caress against success with supple
Skin. You stare back with those
Dull eyes, listless truly unseeing
Yet knowing that in the end our
Actions bring forth no bounty and
Our energy yields no return. Under
The smothering blanket we lay.
