LGBTQ+ Poem: MADNESS, by Lucio Chiala

Rows of
serrated teeth
glint,
platinum,
sharp as
a jack knife’s
edge
A single shock
of crimson
for an eye,
leering in the
wet cavern
as the jagged
ceiling
drip
drip
drips.
ivory animal
carcasses crunch
underneath
the soles of
beat up sneakers.
Where am I?
The tantalizing scent
of cannabis leaves
splinter the geode,
an abstract mind
splattering its
rainbow colored
entrails
until
drawings of pen and ink
grow in detail
and dimension
etched in vivid
color, more avatar
than fiction.
