The Coming Despair

the deception learned

the ease of escape

the fruitless flies

swarming around an

empty bowl once 

filled with a variety

of fruits now rotting,

a taste of life the

sequence of doubts

placed purposefully

as a means of false

actions, for each of 

us have a way of knowing

what destroys our

expressive demands as

we place our failures

in everyone else that

surround us and gives to us

our belief in our self-worth
