serenity leads to treason

serenity leads to treason
dark betrayal
subversion and mockery
you will call reality
a killing by the beast
the worst of it
falling like a nails rain
spikes that bleed
till the end of what you need

usurpers of rotten time
wind their clocks
in a different fashion
than walkers on high wire
there is no stopping
bash beheading traumas
rolling like chemical blood
around the dying of feet

herbs in validation
burn where the heart is
liquid gold runs with thirst
one is all one needs
to fulfill the dream of he
that sweeps all entirety
with slow consequence

serenity is just another reason
why violent men run
with dark guns
why slow reason retreats
why camera men
look for houses
in a different part of town
why the sinister
always have an advantage
