Internal Damnation


shame is the neon sign
boasting from atop the steeple
where 12-year-old altar boys
have been churched
then dropped off in hell.

A lot said in so few words.  Sad, but so true.

True..sadly true Grover.
Powerfully said.

To have lived the dream of a love so true...
   is to have seen a glimpse of heaven.

The title alone made me know this write would have a bite. Enjoyed the way you put this one down in such a small coffin-like space....hell on earth, so to speak.
