Beckon Me On

Beckon me on, heart
Heart of gold like a tank of tigers.
They rip at my riches,
Juggernauting and might defying,
Crashing silently into my identity.
My heart wrecks
Like a ship caught on the rocks,
I’m splintered hard on the depth defying
Gravity.
Beckon me on blunt charity,
Keeps me guessing
Edging myself upon the slippery pedestal
Which has a kind of
Buttery texture,
As lard has upon the frying pan.
So the tiger tank pounds its energy
Right through my whole heart,
As I, in the shade of
A tree look around
At nothing and bare witness
To nothing as the blood cells fight
The tigers, rocketing their way
Through.
