Neverlasting
By Zahgurim
Green spray paint
gives false advertisement
to scorched fields
What now?
What will happen to
the rest of the
blackened earth?
What now?
Where the fuck are
my paint on smiles?
Grins I could
prance around in
for miles
The whole package
Dimples and shit
Cripple free and all
Approach me
Read me a story
The one of my unrestrained hospitality
The pages are blank after 130
What now?
Where the fuck are
my paint on smiles?
Grins I could scratch at
and not even bleed
Approach me
-Hi, how are you!?
But no
Just fuck you
Smiles not even a
papercut could penetrate
Smiles that transform
love into hate
Smiles so unclean
Smiles I could have
left with the Machine
What now?
Where the fuck are
my paint on smiles?
Grins so warm
Grins so cold
Grins so comfortable
Grins if I had...
I would be as snug
as a bug
who dug his own grave.

definitely gives one something to ponder; this piece of art, that is. Not quite sure I totally grasp the full of it, but my intuition tells me it's good ;)
