Unfaced… Replace hysteria with calm,
Evolve devolution, resolve my fears,
Primal tears recant my pleas without balm…
Unfurled, fraternized by panic’s arrears.

When Earth revolves around a heated heart,
When pain of absolution becomes moot,
When stableness dissolves, helplessness charts
An Eternity, planet-bound, and mutes

A spirit freed. Flee the feel of insects
Legs razoring a mind! Run from the crack
Of skeletoned hide, where the feared object
Resides, involved in nothing but its track…

Primordial screams show self’s inner face,
Within its lack, a being feels disgraced…
