miles away - bombs away.
the sky is orange in bright fury.
misunderstandings are catalyst to the hardest battles,
and warrior eyes are desperately seeking a swimmer's ear.
lips that move against lost hope and fallen profanity.
hearts that collide against personal reality and truth.
stupidity at its best - i was always a pupil with high marks.
at every age, a book in hand and a mind reeling.
this mind reels, but it catches no fish.
bait is inadequate, uncertainty tangles the line.
the lure is red, and i am hooked.
this jaw has been torn, but there is no mute fish.
bubbles through suffocation, spiraling out into the fresh air.
unable to breathe in an atmosphere so beautiful.
unable to comprehend the state of affairs.
comprehend is not the right word - accept seems to do the trick.
ridiculous and restless, these eyes never close.
fish rarely sleep. blinking is unnecessary; why delay the view?
