Diurnal Traumas

by Fed Ash

/
1.
A life’s work to forget The shadow hanging At the edge of my vision Waiting on the wings of a Black scavenging bird Sunsetting, trying and failing Creeping its way to my chest I am ridden Driven further under sweat-soaked bedding-sheet ligatures Into the sleeping arms Of an indifferent universe The night grows longer and We Still haven’t lived
2.
Suidae 00:53
Line up at the trough (they just can’t get enough) Steady diets of hate forced into their face Rotten repeating A falsehood feeding “The butcher shop! The carving knife!” “That is the reason for (all) life!” Amongst the deafening screams Ruling Nothing But Shit
3.
Place 03:39
Nothing exists ….and the fields are endless miles apart, stranded Uniform emptiness asleep and unaware This condition is Too much to bear A darkness spreads And blood has been shed “the shape of a girl” They come to roll in it And then move down the path
4.
Nowhere 01:55
Uniform emptiness (But here we are (and where is here?)) To the storm brewing on every horizon here we are Nothing exists
5.
Familiar 03:07
Bled dry a husk devoid Of life Used up / worn thin A ragged wretch with sagging skin Feast of flies and spider’s legs Losing my mind Waiting and twitching When will the master call? Jagged nails running down the walls I live to serve I serve to live until i don’t live at all

7.
Laying stones upon crushed bones Another task a major crash Building towers of metastacyst Every second counts As interest mounts Not enough time and too many vices Another chance to pay The pound of flesh today We’re getting down to The marrow soon Always wondering what is Next between Unhallowed ground and leaden clouds Rising up/then pressing down There is no escape from this weight Release me From this feeling That I Cant Breathe
8.
Exposure 04:47
Pinned specimen pierced By eyes and needles A test of the limit of my will Burnt back boiling skin Flayed open for all One raw nerve That always hurts Creeping down my spine Catch catch on notches Quiet to stop the sound Of waves surging behind my ears Wander away from the light of the flame The night gives way To separation Following rays scattered on The glass of the lake Bed of needles calls me down To where i listen for a world That has nothing to say to me
9.
Bereft 01:22
“Oh dear child tell us what Made you leave us to weep for you” (drip drip dripping) Of honeyed words Call up the ants from below It’s not much longer now
