The Down of Up

Bumps jiggle the bubbles,

Bubbles of life sprawling and looking,

Bubbles seeking others with fullness,

Bubbles knowing all is well.

 

Dark gray metal plates bring zombies,

Zombies crawling and polluting,

Zombies ripping the heart through fabric,

Zombies blanketing purpose with nothingness.

 

Others build my house.

But I search for you.

Others are steady and right.

But I search for you.

 

My bubbles will never come back.

They will never grace me again.

The zombies will kill me.

I will never know if you

 

Would have killed me.
