Sequoia

Pavement swirls upward, over the ridge
Like a curtain rising, presenting the view of a hill

Dotted green, God's playthings

All of our transgressions, collectively intwined
Abandoned to unlawful hungers

Lust will always get the best of me

Chills overcame me as my gaze snapped
And I fell back into the earth

My thoughts passed into hate and loathing, dust to dust
