I cannot go back

sealed lips

compel me to swallow

bitter truth

several times over

till I exhale fumes

from eyes and ears

 

yet

the darkness of my interiors

remains beyond artistic imagination

it might come out as the Evil

I fought against

all my life

 

this is not recycled fury

it is putrefaction

stinking transformation

Into a new self

Alas! I cannot go back

to my weak, older self
