Quotes of Fortune

I knew that it was true

But humbly tried to decline

While each and every eye

Did its best to meet mine

I was somewhere near the edge

Of narcissism and time

Reigning in the chaos

As I cut another line

Fertile space, yields, dances

with the abyss, eager for embrace

An open page, mocks and teases

Coy blank stare, asking for appeasement

The wind bends trees

As the fortune begs and pleads

Take your time back

Let your purse slack

For this judgment is my own

lacking his name in vain.

Filling the vial with truth is my method

a shot of death is my game.

the light touched where the corners met,

beneath the sink,

at the skirt where grandma’s feet,

poked out where she overdosed,

but the candy in her dress,

kept us happy,

till the ambulance showed up
