Majestic Desolation

~* PICTURE THIS *~ Like a lone cactus sitting regally amid a scorching desert wasteland wearing a crown of thorns, I sit astride a funeral pyre engulfed in a conflagration; You see the flames of a fervent passion voraciously consuming me… But do you see the smoldering of my soul within? Touch me and you’ll be set ablaze! ~* FEEL THIS *~ Like a vanquished lord I sit forlorn amid my life’s blighted domain, The memories of past wanton ways of my youth pierce my mind like thorns and prickles; Now at the sunset of my life my sky is awashed in a scarlet hue blazing across the horizon from my soul burning with the intensity of hell... Touch me and you’ll be set ablaze! ~Any HM Ever contest by Laura Loo / HM 8/1/15 ~"The I'Lyezette--Interpret My Mind" contest by FJ Thomas
