Here is a little something I wrote a while ago and thought I would share it here today.

Your Ship Wreckage

And so it is

another blackened day

another frost bitten

disaster 

in between

the beauty

of darkness

a granny smith apple

the elegance

and the warmth 

between 

the coffee

and the pie

when you spill

yours as you 

flap those jaws

amongst the wreckage

begging for

sympathy

receiving the same 

boring look 

you always do

you push

you pull

like a drain eel

like a dying seal

how many times

will you open 

that door?

you create

you burn

etching 

your own disaster

into being

because its 

all you've ever known

perhaps one day

the capability of 

coping with truth

will finally 

consume you

beneath the wreckage

of your ship
