Calculations
Michael Ray Monson
Layers unravel the cactus
Calculating this camouflage
Cancerous choices
Captivating carnage in the air
Casualties that stream
Left in a catatonic state
Finding a cause to it all
Seeking the center
Locked in a chamber in chains
Chasing a dream
Choking in circles
Waking again to cite the words
Claiming the truth
Classical concoctions
Clawing at your throat
Cleaving your head
Counter-clockwise in the clouds
Cobras that corrupt
Cold hearts collide
Concealed intentions
Condemned conflict
Constructing ways to consume
Contaminating all that surrounds
Contracts created in order to control
Coordinating what is considered correct
Counting seconds,
In this current
Cut through
Then cut off
