My Withering Memory Poem by May Witwit

Time has erased you from my soul
Eradicated you from within
Strummer of my pulse
Barbarous tattoo on my skin
No longer will I bow
To treachery or deceit
Now riddance of you complete

I laugh hysterically among the wreck
Rebellious phantom
Preaching Codes of an ancient stele
Saw-dust, decayed, obsolete

Trust departs my soul
No longer suffocates my heart
Throbbing pulse under control
Smothered and dead
Memories of tyrant delet

Hammurabi's Code obliged to rust
Your image no longer robust
Memories wither and die
Welcome death so sweet

Farewell to leftovers of greed
Bone-marrow reeking deceit
