“The Scavenger's Ledger by Stewart Stafford
The scratch of a nib on paper
Tells me I am alive, I think.
At this Heaven/Hell midpoint—
A torn throat for a poison drink.
The horizon lit up again tonight,
Rebels fight for futile freedom,
Happiness, a cold, distant stranger,
No gifted transfusion to bleed him.
Willingly failing the audition of life,
Food appears to have lost all taste,
A numb tongue or cheap ingredients,
I cannot let one crumb go to waste.
They’ve finally cured me of love,
Stripped every vestige of me away,
Carrying my grave upon my back,
Their snail slithers from day to day.

“The scenario where the sprawling anti-hero gets his comeuppance and the champion walks off into the sunset with his arm around the prize, usually a woman, is a pleasing one. This media personification of what a hero is all about used to be the common norm. Examining past events can confirm this convoluted outlook that sees the baddie being portrayed as some sort of evil manifestation sent to cause havoc by any means possible.”
