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
A dark vision beautifully done – then my curmudgeonly mind regards those beasts below and reminds me of what Pogo said, “We have met the enemy and he is us.” We are consumed by the beasts we will not own.
