Blackened Fists

I think the universe is telling me
Something:

To give up or give in to what it sees
Inappropriate;

A van rested
For three whole years;
Three years without tender love
Or care; the turning of the key
Like death without echoes left
Me wanting: escape from this hell
Of ideas and random
Implementations.

Blackened fists changing source
Of power and of power and
FFS please release; and the tears
Fell, and the fears โ€ฆ ah FFS โ€”

Crowbar and plank and F battery
Gave way to empty space, hurray
But but and Oh FFS โ€ฆ

The loaded and charged source
Of power, unable to turn the F
Engine: a bang and a bang
And so the fuse blew blew blew
and the air turned blue.

And so this simile came to be,
Unlike a metaphor I swear it be
Truthful and void: Iโ€™m gonna
Scrap this F*ng van,
Like an offering
To the universe.
