Same Difference

At the edge of the sea I see Rows and aisles On an isle of thornless rose There lies Their lies That carries such a heavy weight But wait In their minds eye I Mine coal and ash In a cold world I whirl through apocalyptic peace Piecing together the sun Where sons roam In Rome's debris When allowed Tales are read aloud to beaus Recorded on papyrus Sashed in a red bow Rose petals thrown in air Fall at the feet Of heirs to the throne Glass ceilings Crack the sealing Along stubborn tiers Icy tears Melt heart senses Floating scents of witch's brews Blush bruises Run laps around memories Time lapse into innocence.
