Metaphor for the personal defeat.
there is nothing I have to share
not right now.

[except]

no.

[I do]


smile on ruins I stand
Another victory.

saluting the white sheet I drenched red
so I must be.
Victorious, you mean.

[and scared, crying.
Falling to my knees.
What have I done?
What have I done?]

Reach to the sky, hands free
Bathed in what I’ve become.

[filth]
