the world seems
skewed
on it’s axis
tilted
at an angle
just wrong
of the normal
leaving everything
off
from where
it should be
burning up
from this fire
blazing
just beneath
the skin this
desire
reducing my brain
to ash
a viral infection
defying detection
a subtle defection
from
how it should be
leaving everything
in a state
of disrepair
unfair
with this
feverish need
for her
I just finished watching a marvelous documentary about ‘entropy’ and the story of energy. Your poem seemed a very fitting finale to how could all be construed on the human level.

entropy and atrophy are very near and dear to me. this constant state of decay intrigues me.

It’s profoundly morbid and life affirming at the same time.
