Such a Tragic Happening
By Dethuntillite
Feeling a lean towards a shade of black
The continual tipping of proverbial scales adjusting eights at a time
Endless years of raking ash off covered walkways
Flammable breath constantly firing into glass holes
Filtering away my home in this common world affair
Transferance of weight left to right apparently noticed
Related carnival goers shooting sharp glances at a clown on break
THE LOOKS THEY GIVE!!!!!!!!!!!
Unwanted pity exported from peeping eyes
Assumptions of comprehension only attainable on oblivious faces
Self-crucifying rhetoric spat from pious mouths
All safehouses having been burned
A sad smile waiting to be cut from the face of the world
It wasn't supposed to be this way. Not like this...Oh God! not like this
How else can one really describe such a tragic happening
