Singular

Dave Seed 1967 (Columbus)

depression drops with the weight of dread
loathe and upset

heavy beat and joy for the dead
fallen and down

sorrow and loneliness occupy my head
black and wicked

unbearable heaviness not unlike lead
wrong and broken

unto nothing like bliss and wed
lost and unwanted

scary woman who is cloaked in red
run and hide
