We are surrounded
gag rag throat muffled
rope burn wrists swollen
blind eyes fist blackened
feet heel-stomped and shoeless
nowhere to go or be
broken shallow husks manic
reveling in lethargy eternal
spiraling Andromeda in waiting
supernova Svengali farewell
Surprise!
Mercy!
Finally!
All our energies swirling like fireworks
in cephalopodic radiance
a dark matter camouflage hiding
any trace or effort otherwise
to any evidence of our ever even caring
that to play hostage
made us weep
while faceless gods played marbles with our worlds.
