Sissyphuss

She has herself a little cry
Not one to flail like a fully opened lotus
You know those
Blossom bombs that float like scum on a pond
You know the
Messages implied in the end you are done
Crying
Absolving,
Redrawing
And crawling from
The craters of ignorance
The sewers of romance
Those untidy typos in ransom notes
She has herself a little cry
Amp turned up high in a freshly watered silence
You know those
Welcome sounds see regret at a second glance
You know the
Floundering denied in the race to be won
Sighing
Resolving
Deploying
And landing on
The haters of ignorance
The matters of romance
Those untidy typos in ransom notes
She has herself a little cry
Flight-blinded soul when the story is expanded
You know those
Wounded beats on the pulse of romance
You Know
Lapping
Un-trapping
Rejoining
To the bloody limb
The haters of ignorance
The matters of romance
Those untidy typos in ransom notes
Leftover wars
In fields unsown
Apologies gone to ruin
mothers we bemoan
everything that’s always been
everything hidden
amidst history in luxurious linen
The fucking aimless at the nonetheless stage
The Bidden
And the unforgiven
The haters of ignorance
The matters of romance
Those untidy typos in ransom notes
