"It's about words, and words are all I have…"

CREEP

NO SOUL LEFT TO SEE THE RUTHLESS JUNGLE CREEP IN

How is it possible for your history to disappear so absolutely

Your home to be devoured  by desperation    +indifference

Meaninglessness the new religion  With all information at your

fingertips  no need for study  for rigour   or  imagination

 

Mortis the order of the day

 

But wait!  You still have the doll with one ear in a Van Gough yellow

dress  +Blue Period eyes   Take her to the doll hospital on a crisp Fall

day  +they will make her you new again   With burnished cheeks  +ears

galore  she will sit on the shelf of your great-great niece who heard you

were alive once
