The Dirt of Our Breath

The Dirt of Our Breath

A Poem by kostern

I am eating yogurt out of a dead man's casket
we are all in a casket
I am trapped in a mirror that can't see itself
we all are mirrors

I am tipping, creeping
towards the book of no desires
The words are hanging, falling
onto the pages of a bible

The words are thrown together
and divised
and broken
and yelling in pain

I didn't want to fall on that gravel
yesterday morning
But you pushed me there

And held me
you all held me
On a casket,
a dead man's casket

We are all dead now
but let's collect the living
And drop them in the water

Like you all forced me to breathe 
while you stared and laughed
while I lived and existed
I hate you all
while I die and keep dying
