Light Bane

Letting go of its plaintive beauty … Barren with corpses, rugged Outset, Crimson storm-cloud hovering near, Distilled by heat, pain, self-mockery.

A thing burning inside, behind meat, Magma rivers, non-confiscated veins, Heading north, away from the breath, Near its shimmering edge, disguised.

What do you want to know, or grasp? To some, a sinking shadow, loosened, Naked descent, to others a new voice, Choking on the spasm of future minds.

So many colors at once, darkness alive, Afterbirth of strangers washing away, Uniting in a flood, ritual bath of giants, Sullenly exposed to the crime-bled sun.
