Prostrate if not prone
victory thru surrender
eluding me now

the algorhythm
leading edge to bleeding edge
is trending somehow

Nothing left to do
destination up ahead
unattainable

though empty and numb
the pursuit of advantage
beckons with a smile

Side by side we sit
like two wounded animals
licking at our scars

death by increment
overdose of solitude
natural causes

you say finally
the end of the beginning
I think this must be.
