I wish that I could smash myself open like a priceless vase
In a cold empty foyer
Break brittle on the Italian marble
& expose my contents in an artful grandiose [Heavy Metal] breakdown
The spread of ash could read like the leaves in your teacup
& I should have seen it coming
But I fucked up
Nothing balances well on a pedestal
I Fear,
