mechanicsA Poem by astraladvocatehow astute of you to mention death the ripening of your thoughts bloomed into bloodflowers halcyon nothingness withering on your tongue as night slips into forbidden places i wish my eyes would dip into the heart of you pull out all the ill-flavoured tendrils and wrap them around mine we don’t need bloody palms to find our common heritage, only fretful afternoons and words and words and words but i crave decadence like a man keens for his dying breath still ill, strung out on malign hunger reign over me and absolve me of delusion lambkin, reign over me and dare to prove me right © 2015 astraladvocate |
