DEATH UNNOTICED

Dark smooths the naive

splinters of light,

Hardly a prick

before the body breaks

under heavy wetness.

Suffocation coming, lungs panic to close

While black concrete seeps around his form.

All feelings encrust-ed.

It works to customize,

A perfect personal coffin

Nails worse than failure

Buried deep and seem to creep.

With pain, draining him

Through punctures & holes

Seeps his blood & soul.

Creating a river of anguish for all life's debris

Fielded & floated on so many cards discarded

His mind flashes on its own

Heading off in death's true direction

While his doomed breath

Exhale all his affections of hope

Since no one knows to miss him,

Or that he met his end with hate or love,

With happiness or sadness,

Did even say goodbye?, to anyone?,,

Anyone worthwhile?

His last view a smile?

For endless hours

After the world ended

In the thick and hard,

A last thought is not mustered.

Spent too much time

Trying a futile escape,

and forgot to live.

Now, only moments before

The body & mind unfied in futility,

One voiceless scream;

"Damn!!", here I go, alone, unheard?"

......Fade-ness, a last whisper-"--

""of existence and then nothing.
