inevitable lost delirium
a sweet patience unknown
tested by intolerable fate
conscious and sweating
the phantom hypocrisy
blame left unhanded
we shuffled feet and muttered breaths
whispers and hushed words of fault
or praise
silent to offenders
blind eyes towards misdeeds
favorite victims
not so casual casualties
tomorrow brings soft hope
draped in unknown hues
and wrapped in sour thoughts
bandages and tape
for cracking bones
like toothpicks
brittle wood makes for the worse support
