Saint Joseph Mercy
Every corner is empty
Everywhere is empty
But I still feel touched
The bronze walls so cold at first
Quickly turn hot and disturbing
It's lonely here
Even the tiny squarrel agrees
But he's lucky enough to get away
Anywhere I go, they will find me
Stargazing could never happen
Pollution favors my space
Though I long to escape
No way pure to do so
My heart races upon entering
Passing the old familiar psychiatric palace
Her eyes
God, it's always her eyes
Saint Joseph, who are you?
What is your duty?
A saint
See, laughter somewhat fills the void
Purgatory
We are one in the same
She says she will never see the ones with the bloody skulls
Nor the ones in perfect health
I beg to differ
We're in Purgatory now
Let's Limbo
I'm here, in World War III
The Nazi's symbol is different this time
It's a cross
Soon
Soon, it will be my turn in the camp
Saint Joseph where are you?
I'm not afraid
Wait, I am
Saint Joseph, where is your mercy?
-Amanda Bentley
