Seemed the over-bright afternoon
a blight upon his private darknesses.
Charlie, quaking to the quick
ambled about on benumbed legs,
feeling most mortal,
doing no good,
those around him
seeming but vane, blind
vessels to eventual carcasses.
Himself a kind of opened,
weird, walking wound,
throwing off the smell
of pain and beaten-down blood.
