Poetry

though I was born

as a cancer in a death bed

drifting apart

from trinity

from dignity

it is the brain

which needs some chemicals

beyond the boundaries

of the meaning of placebo

twelve divisions

of signs ignite

smoldering

inhaling

burn through skies

something is missing

to decrease the tension

in a negative light

to cure the insomnia

in an ecliptic sphere

and worsening mood

floats with philosophy

in the evening lounge

surreal poetry
