This pyre sanctifies me

An imperfect entity

Transformed by surface formation

Mist curtains details

Of selection, natural and otherwise

My direction sung

By deluded sympathy

An escalating coherence

Subversive divinity

Solitary and melodious

This symphony of pain

My decree ultimate

Presentiments of ravaged choice

Echo delusions fallen from favor

To cradled sufferance

Find in this scorn

An excoriating sustenance

For a void moment

Resistence

Scraped and forced

Fed on betrayal

Honey-sweet poison tongue

Witness my change

Only for this one

Tomorrow, future security

Bare-boned and stark

Carmine, this revelation

Scarlet, traitorous deceit

Yours

And mine, these catacombs of craving

It decries mistake-

My regret

Your reluctance

This damaged pavane

Serenades remorse

With morsels of finger-bitten scrutiny

A cavernous, echoing emptiness

Shine, for celerity to demise

Scratching scintillation

Clawed misery

My festering desire apes pardon

Joyous novelle machinations

This god,

Dead.
