Manic

Night,
fallen like head
from guillotine
Brought polluting thoughts
Manically pacing desire helped
with loneliness
Finally cut all the knots
And beautiful mistake was born.
...................
Screaming.
Biting.
Eating the heart of its own.

You came
on the wings of the darkness
Rabid dogs were still all out
Run!
Inform the officers of madness:
Their pets are running freely.
I didn’t have time to warn you
What gathering was all about.

Then silence, subtle and calm
Incoming artillery fire
Lines ran away from my palm
I stomped and trampled desire.
Never I led you to ruin
Never I left you in pain
This life is of my own doing
Recipe of all things insane.

With forehead pressed against window
Raindrops laughing at my face
My armor feels so heavy
My heart heavier in disgrace.

In the cracked throat
An army of thoughts amassed
The sea of rabid lunatics
Longing for freedom at last,
Strangling
Iron bars of the sanatorium.

Leap!
