Marked

Pooling are drops of vermilion blood,
leaving their immortal mark for keeps.
Expunged restless energy is flowing.

Canine marked skin and a purr flowing,
just shy of breaking the skin for blood.
A sound cradled in a whisper keeps. 

Uncultivated hysteria the sunset keeps 
takes control of the connection flowing.
The unwilling at the mercy of their blood.

The victim’s tepid blood keeps flowing.
