Shrouded Bluffs

Herein, laying dormant,
    veils of reposed
      secrecy 'neath
       foamy seascapes' 
              frenetic passages,
languishing below
   sunken treasures'
     false facades of
        reticently rolling
            shrouded bluffs,
 shaded of darkly impetuous 
        hued blood in
          unceremoniously
             bound convolutions, 
a million ancient 
     undisclosed shadows hidden,
     notwithstanding combative
        rumblings of death's 
         unwelcome sycophancy, 
depths of centuries' 
         old unparalleled stories,
 whence hush-hush
       undulatory influx 
          of defiant upsurges
            and turbulence reside,
     that of which only the 
          winds of indiscretion, 
                 clandestine spirits
                      & gods could surmise


        ...whilst  privileged moons watch over amaranthine skeletons
