Response to the delicious "Stains" by Anselm

Downy moss doth grow in shadow
Emerald and darkly damp,
Ancient as the runes of legend
Lost to time's priescent ramp.
Damp and downy, roundly soft
Pubescently profound,
Nestled in the vale of love
Where tarantula abound.
Nestled in the vale between
Stark pillars tall and white
Nestled where tomorrows day
May flourish into night.
Flourish with the elderberry
Mingled with the sage.
Seeping drops of acid wine
Into the maw of age.
