Immortal

Immortal

 **** immortal *****
Hungry maw of art
Feed the writing angry
Commas stabbed to page
Writing in a form of rage
World renounce who I am
Shall make myself immortal is my plan
Write with slashing purple strokes
Arterial blood red explodes
Copper taste in the air
Massacre of thoughts
Barbed wire sentences
on which hang slaughtered metaphors
This is the Somme and Khe Sanh
Sweat blood ink and fears
Bring up heavy calibre vocabulary
A dawn charge cross open page
Sequentially delve iridescent adjectives
Release them from stys
Rutting gutting supping hogs
Greedy for the space on page
Leave me blind with rage
Splash words with tabloid intensity
Before reaching an unenforceable conclusion
A pregnant pause concluded
Child born must find readers
Life beyond covers so dependant
On the care of strangers.
