why are you crying?

"why are you crying?"

Inverted colors created by 

kaleidoscope contacts 

masked themselves as tears.

“Why must sadness leave trails 

visible for passersby to scale up 

the mountain top I reside on 

to receive fresh air?”

Well, they crash around the individual 

to formulate a ring

of gasoline and isolation

that awaits the moment of the

ignition of a match that 

activates turmoil 

and terminates the depression harvesting 

within the 

creature.

Deep inside of their irises exists a figure 

banging against their eyes 

as they can see all that surrounds them 

but others do not see them.

As they plead to escape, 

the figure that traps them burns with the smoke 

triggering a final stream of 

desperation and illness to ooze 

from the portals on the dying vessel 

in the process of self-destruction
