disappearing beneath a canopy of vines;
watching the water
as it trickles by
the mirror
hiding in the depths
of vengeance.
tiptoe through the mud.
bathe in the ash;
a thousand suns.
bite the hand that feeds you
the last supper;
a gift from your creator.
meet your maker.
take your shoes off,
and
dine with the devil.

Been a couple of days. Dunno what this is, but it's another attempt at Inverse poetry.
