Soglied 22A Chapter by RomeroNYC
Empty on a windy road
A loadstone moon rises wounded Like a levy corpse tossed violently Toward a rook-smooth undertow. A road of winding, dipping ups and downs Windy yes’s amid wind-swept bones A crow-black ghost goes endlessly Comes nearer even as he goes Goes further though not gone right here Yet closer than my own damn ghost Close comes though gone and then he goes Nearer even as he ghosts, Just like some Christ-damned enemy An enemy of my not too close Friendly host to my full-fears Drifts here and here in my dear home Of heart and fire and full-bright soul Ghost of ghost of my becoming In the going of my arriving, coming through Christ-shook shade of my abiding Running through uncaught unchanged In the shadow of a shade, full-sexed unraged Under waves and smooth-tide bones I drift my ghost my mirroring My stone smooth runic enemy Through marrow currents of swift shucked bones Split in the night of the mare-cracked lode Ghostly me my own damned ghost, Quick-go into the soul of the undertow, right there Sneak in through the window under eye and over stare Dave Jones, ungazed, unsouled, we Me and my own sad ghost Grow fullmoon bright in the light shone cold In clearness of our haunting glow in guesting swift Quick in the haunting slow of his drift-bonestiff Christ-like white skull. Emptysouled in the crucifixion of his gaze As it slowdrift floats graceful as a sunken boat through the grave Of the souls of the deadmen drowned, unflumed unbound Unsaved, unprayed, ungod unfound, but sprouting up Like tulips of skulls like flowers of ghosts Gathered in the waveward gardens hid neat Within the graveward silence of an ease of death In the depths of the bone-drift harmony Amid the peace and violence of bones unbroke Within the sliver of a moon of a shadow hid full Within the shattered glass-spark of a skullshaped heart now broke In the shadow of the grave of the grey-souled flow Of the grey-eyed, gravetide undertow. Sleeps smooth in peace of soul full-mooned, Unghost, unlost, unquite a care, alive in the light of a bright beware. © 2023 RomeroNYC |
