Aftermath
Champagne ghosts pierce the veil of life
Blinding me to the smell of dawn
Rising rhythmically to tap dance on porcelain
Wild angels writhing in celebration
Seeping through my belly and brain
Translucent perfume thick with salt
Bleeding screams of laughter
Squirming through rivulets of blood
Cold decay of a smoky yesterday
Dissolving in my cup of coffee
Blinding me to the smell of dawn
Rising rhythmically to tap dance on porcelain
Wild angels writhing in celebration
Seeping through my belly and brain
Translucent perfume thick with salt
Bleeding screams of laughter
Squirming through rivulets of blood
Cold decay of a smoky yesterday
Dissolving in my cup of coffee
