Denominator

 It hurts, it quickens death of self

Like dusty book left lonely on a shelf

Once opened spills fine shards that tear

At semblance of reality, so hard to hear

The voice of one's morality

Words glisten, nauseating warmth

Slams forth against resolve and swarms

The mind with clarity, with sense

Of one's finality, incensed 

The questions form, sans answers

Bespoke besieging horrid absence

Of safety, just the eyes that stare

Just the hands that beckon, dare

Just the smile, hungry, bloody fumes

The enemy, the denominator. Truth!
