Sound Of Falling Dirt

Sublime anguish of grief in heart of stone
magnifies memories of bitter regret
in abrupt avalanche of absurd words
that crush fragile temple of vanity
with platitudes from sound of falling dirt
vibrating landscape of false paradise.

Dazzled with language in my heart of stone,
which proliferates new realities,
I transition to my alternate self
reflected in reverse image of fear
through attitude for sound of falling dirt,
stunned by absence of the speaker we call.

Too eager to embrace void of the mind
with animistic hunger for weird truth,
she adds zeroes to sum of fractured wealth
to oblige heartlessness of capital
without echoes from sound of falling dirt
accrued through impossible leap of faith.

Insistence on her spiritual register,
burned in ceremony of speechless rage,
he recounts moments surrounding her death
to spare assessment of semantic birth
without regard for sound of falling dirt
that fills empty grave in void of his heart.

Prayer despite reverence for the miracle
blinds his heart to her foolish sacrifice
with broken promise to never forgive,
twisted by pleasure from absence of pain
before advent at sound of falling dirt
while ruminating on the righteous path.

Misfortune of the secret litmus test
discounts shocked feeling of still being alive
though his brain dials electric spirit-trance
for bold imminence of grim bravery
from rectitude at sound of falling dirt
with limited grace of intimate truth.

Stuck in unforgiving mirror of fate
under shadow of death in the light bulb,
she calculates precondition for faith
with token of remembrance she must steal
to observe change at sound of falling dirt,
contrived by network of opportune friends.

Outward judgment based on divine pretense,
tucked away in book of fictional gods,
he calculates sales from self-righteousness
enriching betrayal of social norms
which abides beyond sound of falling dirt
through revelation of translucent wings.

Orpheus records sound of falling dirt, then adds it as soundtrack for his movie about the man who weeps in grief over the death of his bride bitten by a snake just before their wedding.
