It is done

The numb look away

The good cry

The bad smile

The music goes on a while

Before curtains fall

 

Bleak recall

Bis repetita

Non placent

Moving on

The art of dramaturgy

Through comedy’s peaks

 

Twined effort

Compounding inches

Of the flesh

Quarter pound

The quakes in hundreds resound

Of flailing senses

 

The garish

In hues of Toulouse

Colours me

Split rainbows

Released in dreams nightmarish

Fascinating haunt

 

The boys taunt

The stray kitten meek

Their eyes cruel

Their minds fuel

Imagination Hydes seek

To play with the prey

 

Wilting zone

Surreptitious play

For undead

Kingdoms rise

Survivors none the less wise

A black crown to hone

Mother wakes

Shaking off the crusts

From past wounds

Stretching taut

We receive havoc we brought

With our tiny hands

 

Tall splendour

She unfolds her gait

Ninth wonder

Defines her

Moving through Eleventh gate

Lava and thunder

 

Molten breath

She trembles and heaves

With the tides

As she rides

Brings upon us Mercy’s death

Split faith her stallion

The blind screech

They cling to tatters

Dying leech

Mind flatters

While the seeing heart scatters

The law of Talion

The children

Survivors of wreck

They sail lone

No captain

Only ghosts upon the deck

As they whimper lost

We reborn

From scattered blue coil

Remember

Past glory

Huddled in ship hear story

Of ancestors’ toil

Now rejoice

I will remind you

How we fled

Tomorrow

Leaving behind us sorrow

Shedding it like leaves

 

Nasal voice

Through Time’s loudspeaker

Calls for me

Warning shrill

It transforms to wing my gill

Splitting the ethers

 

Hurry child

Follow flight of birds

They head South

Where waters

Split through the red desert storms

Basking in two suns
