Total Blitz of the Heart
with thanks to singer Bonnie Tyler
every now and then
a banshee hijacks my lungs then
screams
through my opened mouth
she can’t
make it stop
screams
through my opened mouth
she can’t
make it stop
lightning war
staccato. Sparks.
dissonant bombs Fall
in lonely Cminor
bowing to Beethoven

stealth in the Dark
purring prowlers outside broken windows
bleeding onto shattered glass

Pain.
You.
depress a Flare
into my sternum
and Fire
an S.O.S.
to signal my distress
You hold me safe
try to seal the wound
with a righteous Kiss
into my sternum
and Fire
an S.O.S.
to signal my distress
You hold me safe
try to seal the wound
with a righteous Kiss
i fall apart
in my dark bunker
dumped here as suddenly
as an Atom bomb
as quickly
as nuclear Waste
as an Atom bomb
as quickly
as nuclear Waste
blind in the darkness
beneath me i feel
a large wooden crate
i slit my fingers
between its planks
beneath me i feel
a large wooden crate
i slit my fingers
between its planks
inside
packed with straw
something cold and Metal waits
packed with straw
something cold and Metal waits
as i touch it
steel shoots quickly
up and into my arm
steel shoots quickly
up and into my arm
(Achtung!)
Compliments of Herr Mauser

into my empty chest cavity

another heart
lost in the Blitzkrieg
