Eden

The rolling sky self-reflecting as it froths above God Whispering lacey silhouettes as it curdles in my mouth The baptismal rain sanctifies itself endlessly My imperial Eden and unannounced abomination Severe with conviction; let my body weather here as marble death My deepest river, you swarm my blood as butterflies clotting me with unashamed resolution I remain as ever, unchanging.

The first line absolutely took my breath away... "as it froths above God"? OMFG. This is beautiful... the last line is so poignant as well. Love it, Bugsaay. Daffodillage =]
