Image Source; 💡 Waking home 🚶 💀 💀
Flurry flower fluttering on our faces,
waves of whistling winds
beating our ear lobes in pain
thistles and thorn blistering,
as we slither like wounded vipers,
crawling on jagged floors,
watching the steaming sun glitters,
bathing us in uncomfort
We're roaming, roaming home
to our truest home,
nose stuffed in wool,
lifeless like the wilderness
conveying us is loneliness,
sweet straining dirges,
sung by watery eyes
and swollen speeches
till we're dropped into the dust
We're roaming, roaming home
coasting, carrying tombs
like honey in catacombs
rotten flesh and unkempt beard,
we've lived like landlords
in borrowed houses
walking the earth like emperors,
until we can no longer feel
the gentle thudding of the heart
We're roaming, roaming home
carrying our kidney and bones
seeking salient spaces to hide,
on journey to Golgotha,
the horn of the ugly one
will buzz like busy bees,
bringing our sleeping spirits to life,
still, seeking and seeking
carrying cases and caskets
wasted hoes and unburied hatchets
life to us is a beautiful mirage
