Ellison M. Fernandes
The Hollow Herd
943
Poetry
Neon signs and blistered feet
Obsession is a loathsome beast
Thinning wallets, blinding lights
Losing strength, losing sight
Minions in black and emblems carved
Impale the minds of the pleasure starved
First to cop, first to own
Rationality now disowned
Devotees rage, skin to skin
Brand-clad bodies, wrenched within
Clawing forth with glassy eyes
A hollow scheme wired in lies
Cheers and chaos rabidly roar
Gilded frame, hollowed core
Devotion ends, nothing to claim
Obsession now drowned in flame
