Fade

13 Jun
Experience pure joy alone
throwing shit into the water.
Scream at every passing wave.
I may fade but never falter.

Watch humanity grow grey hair;
avoid reflecting with some dumb show.
Then I see white light break apart.
I snag some straws and head for home.

Jealous of nesting crows just
grabbing passing hair and shouting.
Don't cry, they're just lullabies
and songs sung sweetly at the ending.

I ripped the pages from your bible so
you built another warehouse on the water.
Sigh at every passing wave.
I might fade and I might falter.
