Reclaiming the Echo
You found my demons
You lidded my box of hope
I drank the holy water from your font
I ate your body
I drank your guts
Your heartlessness is
higher than
the church’s steeple
thinner than
your stream of piss
wider than
your storming erection
Silence dangles its sparkling adventure
Like the carrot that makes you choke
Like that basil leaf that warms your soup
The olive tree that shadows the night
The innocents on their way back home
Let’s throw our heads back and laugh
Let’s reclaim the echo of despair
