Tragedy On Saturn

A Sonnet

Tragedy On Saturn - Sonnet

Betrayal my love, lift high the laterne

Face Venus in retrograde traverses

Translucent on corners remote curses

Born black, myriads of stars find Saturn

Accouterments of time form a pattern

Empty space ends where voided souls cascade

She lives on the outer planet decayed

Contaminated world spins through that turn

Our cold orbits cross paths, not each others

Nor touch warm hands taken now for granted

Stay safe with lies deprived of what is true

World of beauty, frost covered, not lovers

Skate ice bands above the outer planet

Slice through the heart, the frigid night in two

Author's Note

Venus in retrograde. Saturn in decline. A tragedy about to unwind.
