Motherly Verses

Matthew Canning

Just because you forgot that doesn't mean that I forgot

I want my doubt on record
I want it stamped and sealed and underlined
At least a hundred times
I want our names on paper
A contract guaranteeing me my life
If this is every night

Just because you forgot that doesn't mean that I forgot

I lose myself in motherly verses
Which, stained in time by our fatherly fears
Become the blade that I use to grind
And find some flesh to hide behind
Momentary verses find me
Breathless, wordless, out of time
In permanence, an hourglass
I stare through
As I wait for my lost light

Expressionless and silent beasts are
Circling in sunless seas
Searching for an offering
They're always waiting
They wait and they wait and they wait and wait

Angels of madness are
Trumpeting sermons of death
And despite our protests
They found solace in the spaces
Beneath our beds
And what's done is done

Just because you forgot that doesn't mean that we forgot
Angels of madness are trumpeting sermons of death
