Holding Hands with Death/ Niklas Stephenson

Somewhere

inside my shivering mind

hope and regret

skip through lucid landscapes

holding hands

with a canister of oil,

ready to burn down

my past

and the societal norms

pushing down on me.

They've already found

the memory of you.

The future waits,

smiling,

holding hands with death.


Niklas Stephenson is trying to understand things through his writing. He has published a few chapbooks of poetry with Analog Submission Press & Between Shadows Press and self published a novel" Bloodbursts" available on the parasitic Amazon.
