Ineffable

Ineffable

A Poem by Perdition

“Captivating.”

 

She dripped in lollypop language

Red-tongued

“I prefer the word…“Captivating”. ”,

 

Sprawled in a billion atoms

I amassed myself…

“What?”

 

“ Captivating! ”

 

Here,

The arteries to my hippocampus began to untwine,

Lava,

Where corn originally grumped

 

“Let me think about that…”

This

The only response keeping me alive

 

If only the Bering Strait was still a valid try

A god-hearted ice bridge in possibility

Alone I would run

Northward to the Poles

Where I could scream as I saw off my legs,

 

But here she was

Ineffable

And yes,

captivating.

 

Tomorrow, I prayed

It is another day

A veritable Iceland

Lolita will swallow more words in playful umbra

And I will die

 

My face painted

North to some sleepy goat-whittled town

Where hell certainly awaits

 

I will drink Camus and think,

My ancestral lace in delicious fire

Phosphorescent

 

She will roll

Belly exposed and smiling

Her long brown eyes saddled to her staring braids

I will repent

A fever in my most violent sin

 

I will weep the rosary in thorns

Ineffably where Artemis in dreams will kiss the webs among the hunt…

 

"I thank thee for thy reverence, Orion,"  

"But come, let us be companions of the hunt together,

 Thou and I."

 

Here I will wake to scream the night

Ineffable
