cognito
He'll
never hear the question:
"So...how
does it feel to be crucified?"
while
his privacies
and
proclivities are washed away
in
the atomic light.
His
eyes say;
It
was never supposed to happen..this way.
I
can't even leave the house anymore!
All
his artistic aspirations
hadn't
prepared him for
a
stint as a media whore, and
he'd
never heeded
the
seventh commandment
of
self-preservation:
"The
stronger your despair,
the
more of "you" will bleed
into
the carpet."
When
a poet writhes in the spotlight,
stick
to the honesty of shadows...
and
cobblestones.
