Impose a Penance

Who was the one paragon in design, With the sunset skylined aura divine, These tepid wicked hearts soaked deep in brine, casting out shadows held lost in time, Malice always open through those blinded eyes, Hushed whispers speak of vulgar tales and lies, One gilded chalice filled with blood and wine, One comet loveless arch the eternal cries, Chariot ablaze as phantom horses rise, Mane in flame essences lit within eyes, Who are you thats so ominous to describe, Who are you a serpent, a man, or deprived?
