Damnation Still Unrhymed

With verse in debt to time enslaved, its prophecy of doom Whose curse to sling like darts and arrows, destined for the tomb All words in red, as blood they drip, from wounded hearts and minds My breath to scorch with fire and salt, —damnation still unrhymed (Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2017)
