Sparrow Grows To Eagle, Eagle Eats Itself

I am dying
not lying

And trying
no crying.

Might be a lesson
in this depression

A starless stigmata
clueless impression.

Swim a mile
over the river vile

Then wait a while
for a long gone smile.

Quiet things grow
into a horror show

Mad as a camel
etched on ones brow.

One flash of summer
alights on my face

Until one million storm clouds
come in its place.

Feathers become hammers
hammers will stop

The peace becomes bomb
and the bomb will drop...
