the caged bird’s disgust at paradise
Tag: Elancharan
illusion of ash clouds the disturbed mind
nowhere to go the pyre smoke snakes and plays
the caged bird screams and you say it sings
grey miasma strangely calming
light falls gently upon a body among bodies
all noon the jack hammer inside my head
nightfall voices combust
sun shower needles of light pierce the grey
diligently drying out my soul in summer heat
