in preparation of doom untethered

over caffeinated
souldust glitter
humming in hues
frigidly staring
at nothing for hours
retracing steps
through the blizzard of dust
shed skin and radioactivity
this heart is a geiger counter
clicking hisses rapidly tick
glow in the dark
with the serenity of
sterile flame
blistered flesh bubbles
as the rancid bits
slough fluidly off of
an obsidian skeleton
a sheathe of muscle gripping
an empty skull
forsaken smiles flex forlornly
a space
inoperable
a cratered vacancy
in tumultuous shades unseen
