Necropolis

Tristan Robert Lange

I am a free thinker—always will be—
I do not swoon but push forward in thought.
Yet, my thoughts—it turns out—are not that free,
And showing any brilliance gets one shot.
 
Walking streets a ghost—piss in the pot—
Transparent flesh reveals my rot.
Once whole, I have been devoured
By these zombies around me.
 
It used to be a tale—
Two cities...one.
Augustine to
Necropolis.
 
The gorging
Dead.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Written in my original form, Ghost Sonnet. A haunt of the Spenserian Sonnet, the form and words slowly disappear into a ghostly echo.
