~ Thriving Through Pain ~

~ Thriving Through Pain ~

                            What sudden impermanence
                                       Doth quake
                                   Through the pain 
                                  Of the accumulated 
                                    Fears of infinity
                                     Oh let me be
                                        Its heart...

                                    Ladder the Earth
                                         With my
                                     Scorched mind 
                               With all its imitations intent
                                      I thread the eye
                                       Of needless
                                         Viscera
                                        And vomit
                                         A snake's
                                          Decay...
