Depression

Depression

has us under

its blackened thumb

smothered in its

sweet chloroform

our dark becomes

its own reward...

we want release

like from a pen

and so we bleed

till a last breath...

our inked signatures

moist and smearing

while subconscious

to the surface...

comes revealing!

very faint lines

waving vainly

in surrender...

upon these

white flags

of ours
