Mercury
Mercury
An Angel having recently visited you
Sent back metal film
of your Ancient silver shores
cratered with loneliness
The humming of silver tides
or discs bent longingly
with long, lonely empty looks
Silver Disc crater Eyes
looking back at the messenger
With cold memory
of the abandonment
which bore their emptiness
In the insane heat of the void
And now leering livid
Yet vacant in disdain
For and through
the self-loathing
oF the emptiness
Which bares no life
Except the Whisper
of Loneliness
