A Car Crash of Existence
By Virgils Vigil
Camouflaged calamity
Perpetrating humanity.
Alone in a dark room
Jezebel swoons
To a broken face
Among the filth
and acerbic taste
That all too well
Captures our backwards race
The killer stands on the hill.
He begins to dig through the surface.
If he doesn’t fulfill his purpose,
lost souls of other shells will.
Transcending blood and bone
Whitewashed gallows groan
With no pounds of flesh
For its crossbeams to call home.
Cadences of car crashes
Resonate through the town.
The dolls all scream in horror,
Yet no eyes peer around
and no ear hears the sound,
of the landfill of existence
Slowly being filled,
as our meaningless tabs
are consecutively billed.
A sense of wrong and right
Is essential to deny
To convince those who came before us
That we’ll willingly comply
With our loss of skin
We burry our kin
In the holes of our mind
Delicately refined
Ways of accepting
There’s nothing to accept
The windowpane shatters
As we all enter death.
