Morbid Eclipse

29/8/12 The ideas we hold are recycled even when they seem our own, I think it's important to consider all possibilities put in front of us, even if society seems to have rejected them

I salvaged the broke apples that lay naked in the mud,

Devoured and repulsed, by you.

You cause a storm, violent through the clapping of crimson tides in wasted light,

As the Leviathan bleeds in deep cerulean that kisses my toes and suffocates the fractured that fell

Into my palms and the dirt, while abhorred by the steel plates sat over your sanctuary, society.

I dispose of none in mind, under a morbid eclipse.

Driving on as a car with no wheels in a hurricane.

In your eyes and finger the burning embers nurse an ebony wound that's weeping,

Frantically thinking, are you too a victim of dissatisfaction? Or of me?

As I am, burying my own bones forever.

Wild like rubies and fire enchanted in the wind,

Or still like the ashen stone they tickle,

Words received speak in silence as deafened corpses in the clay if they are to be without

Indulged strength of thought as mine sprawled here.

Lucifer and the Reaper, whoever your masked Messiah is aureate,

Veiled and seductive as your mind at peace in a palm or a pillow.

Absolutely amazing, it's the right mixture of an almost gorey take yet completely psychological.
I adore it.

From the very beginning of the poem I felt as if I was just zapped right into your world. I seriously think that you should be published. Like, now. Have you submitted any of these to a real publisher? I would recommend it.
