vein oxidized, puce

lyrics of babe, traps pulse and

strangle the newborn

trouble,

the initiate inner systems collide

and crack plasma, a swift and true

hurricane of hurried sinew makes jazz, a flat

lateral view of catastrophe. lingering, a bog

stares new wash into sick septum villages

hurry not, my tribe! it cascades, perceived

coarse and untrue

a cry for help

Calls out!

wash over me in your cold,

dilapidated

gaze, satiated by hate,

lyrics of curses

words burnt on the

coarse untrue, salivate

crumble and cave,

babe of the scarlet new

Run!

future brews concocted

by the desire and death

of the marrow feud

bruised, hazed in violent violet fog,

a cry for help

the words are all wrong.

Crash!

crackle the mind dash, a hope for two untrues, a velvet whip made of wine,

brandy, and song. sing loudly!

Crack!

gush violence! haze and crowd the bog. boar

that shocks and caves, thrusts his tusks

deep! sinew askew!

Crimson cosmic

in the living room pool

About the Creator

Trent Odlin

After getting diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disease at the age of fifteen, forcing me out of school and uprooting my life, I spent the majority of the next five years in bed. There, I found writing, and my own style of surreal poetry.
