walking backwards

searching out thin fleeting
thought, chasing rabbits down
slippery holes, grasping web
lines to piece together some
semblance of rational thought
painkillers dull the brain, making
zombies out of creative souls
who's knocking on the door
has anybody seen where all
the wasted love has gone, be
careful with sharp edges
marks of canine and cat
etched into bone marrow,
long jagged marks sit beneath
the skin, pretend you never
loved anyone else once upon
a time, blame the happily ever
after its gone sour, another
midnight hour, we were blind
lovers grasping for each other
