Shalt See
Reddening eyes of mine
Now thine,
Swathed by the unfurled truth, though
Embosomed by the darkness of
Disguise,
Now I shalt see what tramples
Inside…
Amidst a misty, ravening sky,
Convening ebony lies,
Contorting like rumbling thunder,
Veneering and shredding
The dark, cobalt portrait,
Like talons they
Imply…
Breezes of croons,
Swiftly they swoon
And lay themselves
Poised upon arid grounds,
They lay with empty sounds…
Swindling fear,
Void…
“Breathe thy power upon my skin,
Breathe virtue, breed intuition within…
Open my eyes… open my reddening eyes!”
“I have seen… I have realized…”
Ebbing void, Ebbing darkness,
As they fade into the mirror…
