Mirthless Perspectives - Scarve

Now that the bleeding is even

The ineluctable settles inside

To remain inert forever

Somewhere something has died

Capture echoes of the end

In uncommon lucid moments

Strain our eyes staring

Where there’s nothing to be seen

Mirthless perspectives

Perpetual imbalance

Kill-conceived instinct

A spiritless battle

Doomed to be lost

Running fast and fearless

Hooked onto our empty shells

A profound sensorial burn-out

Switched off all remaining reason

Blinded numb with shock

Somewhere something has died

Simply heading towards the day

When our suffering will subside
