Like Poisonous Trees


We move like the dead you forgot to bury,
we fall like we're in a hurry

A fricative mist of lethal sounds,
cold eyes and awkward pounds.

Impersonator in earthbound gown
angel with buried feet, passion drags her down.

It's a lovely thing, it is, this ground will confess,
to sleep, to die, in a chemical dress.
