day of the apple (new poem)

[lostinlyingeyes]

ritually picking scabs
to separate flesh from fiction.
decaying foundations of idealism,
it's miserably ever after.
when the kiss becomes the poison,
suck the cure from the core.
beautiful dormant oblivion;
introspective paradise.
blessed with the bliss of ignorance.
comatose miracles,
the glass slipper fits the amputee.
when fairy tale fantisies
burn to the ground
and nighmares rise from the ashes,
the day of the apple has come.
