Rellenar las ausencias
You are the nighttime devil’s semis
burning down the warehouse road
crashing through potholes in dropped toolbox cacophony
echoes off walls,
clanging.
I know it’s your
poltergeist locomotion
death driving a furnace
fueled by suicide
driven to death.
Obsession pushes my head under water.
A junkyard dog mutters nightmares lodged in his throat.
The harbinger left.
I wait.

How a poem can be both a poem and a metal anthem.
This needs a music video.

Maybe a skeleton driving a semi that’s on fire and crashing into warehouses and whatever else is on/near the road!
