SWALLOWING HUMANITY

person-1888006_960_720

The cracks will swallow you

When you least expect them to

The deep dark veins below

Snake around your feet

And slither silently to and fro

Ubiquitously lacing surfaces

Unapologetic and merciless

With obscure secrets to bestow

Giving air to the beasts beneath

Who wait patiently to consume

Eventually and completely

The humanity that treads above
