common death interest
Monday, June 12, 2006
a desperate, unlucky place.
the
white light
hot nightmare
you can't wake from.

walking among the stench,
humanity's low tide.

old structures painted over,
but never truly clean.
like coating a piece of rotting flesh
would keep it from going rancid...

a beautiful face can save--has saved--all of this..
the lie
i
tell
myself
every
day



laughs




[hope dies here]
