An honorable death


Write till your fucking fingers bleed,

blood soaking

gripping the tight lines

with no 

remorse.


Look away from life past

just like those brave souls 

aboard the Titanic;

fathers, husbands, caregivers—

they put their skulls 

inside the icy jaws 

of the lion

as it roared

then pryed them out

and stared back

warmly.

They sent off 

future gem-studded

dynasties

under dazzling and indifferent stars

while the band

played

one last song.
