"Death of a Salesman" aka The Only Fitting Title

it is as the myth of heaven is to the devout

a singular alluring force

as elusive as eventuality 

time nurtured the cynic

sagacity of experience 

bludgeoned the reoccuring flippancy 

a muted violence upon the hopeful

a constant toil to maintain buoyancy 

while attraction's wild nature proved to instill 

the indelible weighted shackles of doubt

ubiquitous credence haunts

and the officiated dissident recoils 

recalling a doctrine no longer fitting 

even as tattered as the currency of its relating

sparks a potential deviation 

to atavistic notions of coital unraveling 

ravaging a once stagnant body

compelling a great hibernation into sheer denial 

a starved creature retreats back

to the sustenanceless throes of delusion

facetiously floating frivolously

above the drag of days to come
