Soul
The light sprawls through the deadened blinds to land in a heap over the muffled bed spread
a figure moves in silence
her pale feet like dead corpses
and she skitters over the dusty carpet
a hand stretches, the tendons strained, and the joints creak
her eyes like dark flames in the murky night are chained and padlocked
a pop is heard from her broken down body
the light giggles hysterically as it rolls back and forth in mirth over the bed
she ignores it and continues forward
the sludge that heaps around her is like concrete, weighing her down
skin droops and cracks over her razor sharp bones
and she strides forward.
the blinds stand shoulder to shoulder, unmoving soldiers
her mouth is grim as it gapes open in mindless screams
her mind is slowly spiraling down with no pilot to maneuver around the empty buildings.
the hand with the butchered nails clasps the cord that holds the blinds in their frozen position and is yanked down as her body collapses in to dust
and then she is free.
