the homeless gather in god’s shadow sobbing

mornings of frigid
black pyramids disrupting
a confluence of confusions
drifting solemnly along
concrete effigies to
fossil fueled ambiguity
demons belch black smoke
a furious condemnation
of god’s fading contusions
while sparrows weep
ebony tears for a tomorrow
consumed by cancerous growths

my fingers trail along
these brackish waters alight
with rainbowed refractions
in simmering pools of
shimmering sick vomited
in anxious collections
of scattershot thoughts
disturbing the tumors
languishing on muddy shores
if you squint just right
they look to be waving
through a stream of steady
carcinogenic sour notes
blown through these clouds
of partiulate laden promises
