silent killer

Jeannette Fritz 1986 (Virginia)

Free verse
silent killer
i’d leave a note
consider this it
pernicious void
penetrated by a blinding
kaleidoscope of chaos
magnified fragments
illuminate the abyss
shattered portraits cast
fractured perceptions
painted in muted hues
intrusive and deafening
echoing insidious epiphanies
existential confliction
visceral experiences of an
evanescent existence
silent killer
the wall of stone that broke barriers
slaying the sound of silence

About this poem

Searching for recognition in the distorted, fractured reflection of a splintered psyche, line by line, piece by piece. A reflection shattered somewhere admist my years of dying to be loved.
