The Captain's Log

The negativity of loneliness
attacks your righteous mind;
sinking it like an anchor.
The once proverbial positivity of
your penmanship is scribbled on the wall.
Your words are scattered,
misleading, and unpresentable.
Lie out your lines one by one;
rearrange them like a jigsaw until they fit.
Now speak them slow and smooth.
The hollow tone of sweet alliterations
flowing from your lips begs the question,
“where’s your muse, dear one?”
She was lost at sea,
a captive of piracy.
The delusional escape of jumping ship
pulled her overboard to leave you
captain of an abandoned tomb.
