Charcoal Starlight
april '03(The Glass Boy) a quiet walk home. little brother found me
Speachless in scene. (seamless)
mind shut out. tearducts awaken.
the only vison of himself.
tied the knots so tight. (so fine)
rode on the clouds high,
and swooped down, set himself.
o n f i r e.
july '03(The Flower Girl) phone calls to a machine. best friend found me
up in smoke through thick red wine.
yet, love is at abundance. (at her fingertips)
a magic touch.
tried to fight but lost -
found the thread, the blade, and the outter lense -
gone. for an unjust cause.
whispers of red wine to her people below:
lost in time and space. (an unconclusive end. confused tearducts.)
may '03(The Butterfly Boy) mother kissed me and tucked me in. father and older brother found me
flew through blades of blue grass
lived a life of freedom++++++++++
smashed glass safety nets
and plush doll helicopter pads
went down to land,
with a thick threaded purple parachute on...
closed his eyes and his lungs
in the blink of last breath
forever
and ever
g o n e
(teenage sacrifices in thrice
(no need for split ends
(sent to lend, create their own end
(live, love, lie, and die
(loaning their souls
(to the used
(and the confused
(forever shedding tears
(for a young, loved ones end.
