lo, and behold

Stemming from my original mission to create 365 poems. A culmination of years past and days present.

25: a gathering of all gatherings

The collection of ghosts
and their nightly meetings
with talks of philosophy drawn outdoors to dry
with the other thoughts
dripping of recycled pretension -
the cannibals are feasting
on this picnic of talk.
Finding out who's the weakest
then, having been fought,
ranked themselves highly on society's scale.
