sacrificial not sacrifice,

the constant shifting,

the blade of a knife,

seven sides of a story,

sixteen eyes see,

a wayward smile,

tenure done,

tension focused,

away we drift upon seas of red,

sycophant dreaming,

migration from one day to another,

we mix the mistakes in with the lies,

drawn together,

better apart,

castrate and cultivate,

blessed from the start…
