warning: choking hazard

i choke
gagging
hands clutched
to my throat
finally
the obstruction
breaks free
i begin
vomiting
flower petals
onto the
rainswept
sidewalk
a cacophony
of hues
puffs of
airy pollen
fairydashes of
sweet scents
a coagulation
of efflorescence
a symphonic
swarming
in blossomed
decay
spewed to
deface
the faceless
face
of reckless
consumerism
as presented
in flowery
midvomitous
dissatisfaction
its shades
effused with
thoughtless
abandon

i choke
gagging
as cicadas
claw up
my throat

i choke
gagging
on the words
unspoken
the thoughts
left to
wither
on the vine

my cold corpse
covered
in wet petals
a riotous
spectacle of
the spectacular
a spirit
choking
on a life
unlived
