SCAT'TRD.


I have never been elevated,
I have served an empty throne. 
The enthroned one cares not for me,
For I sit in it alone.

I am a tautophonic scream
awake in humid, lucid dream.
They shouted me on taking 
medicines that keep them waking.

And yes, I attacked your weakness.
Yes, when you were vulnerable.
You chronicled it then,
and so did I.

But you didn't account
for my Fermentinfatuation 
or 
the relentless strength in you.

Here I hate this absence of old
repeating the fiction of hurt.
I was stuck halfway between scattered and stoned.
Halfway between water and dirt.
