Chapter 3

03/17/2024            

They traffic in weeds and greed and unkept gardens

The cracks in between where love lacks

Face of lies – restless roamers

Looking for a cry

Some façades of normal

Ever sold out to some other power

Waifs sorely lost to wander together

Trios to empower each to the other

Ghostly and ghastly with greenish fumes

Night crawlers in the neighborhood

Far afield to steal something real

Empty and howling in the night

Nothing nice nothing real

Darkness that persuades and

Degrades to utterness
