classless jungle of bodies
I am buried
Conscience high
pitched under breath

The chivalrous giants
trample and deafen you
Well-mannered pigs
A touch and transaction
On my way now
On your way, your way

Brash disillusion
You devoured me!
The roses still
Insignificant mess
It drips, drips

Often forgotten
Still present hills
Admiring the view
The avalanche trills
Eternal as snow
It drips, drips

The Death of Chivalry

Brash disillusion

Insignificant mess

Often forgotten
Still present hills
Admiring the view

And they slaughtered them all. Until they knew, and then they cut off their bow-fingers. But then they knew, and chivalry wasn dead. Long live Agincourt!!!

My god, it drips, and only if you could feel the hunger of your snow. You'd run before the avalanche, like a well-mannered pig.

I like this
I feel caught within it
Not sure I know what it means
I might feel certain
Neither do they

I feel I never knew what noble man
or women once felt

Your words are haunting and
beautifully distancing just now
from some past that seems dead

Thank you!

Peace!
