axial existance
whipped in candle steam boasts
the room swimming in insence
and thick heat
the bruises fresh from presses
of the juggernaut

rolling like beads of brilliant
understanding
the wickedness of treasures
in breathe caught
visions swum
like exposed waterworlds
heaved upon rocks

Tawny bedroom haze
sucked in the vision
of smitten like

music a scourge and
madness mix

a race through forests
dark and daring
the price a Love
most harsh
Uncaring

livid limping and laced
in ruin
the wrecks of hearts
grown worn
worn lurid

scathed smiles
dreaming miles
strut and bump
the trophies show
