advanced apathy by Jake Walters

a picturesque argument
with name-brands, and immigrant-natives
advanced apathy
it's too late to see

the roots of a tree in a restless knot
and the branches are starting to die
the feet of the giants are diseased and rotten
and the fingers succumb to necrosis

plasticine flowers
strewn across a grave
advanced hypocrisy
is what i have believed
delicious chemicals
sliding down oesophagus
advanced apathy
it's too late to see

the entrails of the sky, we are amuck
and the vessels collapse, spilling blood
the flowers of her face blooming politely
her dwelling place is built on her corpse

god isn't dead, but you're killing her
god is not a man, god is the earth
listen to the wind, it is screaming in pain
you can feel it in the soil, you can smell it in the rain
a human can be dead, and time never stops
if you cut off the head, a new one will grow atop
but there is not permanence to the ground we walk upon
advanced apathy, and soon it will be gone
