To Tan a Ripper Hyde

As the receding 
nestles of dying
love 
in full bloom,
now 
sadly blown away.

The seasons of 
the massacreing 
tides of Autumn,
the soothing winds
of change,
now gently at bay.

As love's decree
of passion 
resides at chamber,
felt within the door.

To conjure a broom
for everyone to hold,
peasantry, pleasantry,
a harlot,
and a merciful whore.

There is passion
hidden beneath
the swirling cosmos,
a treasure found
within thee.

Like the hearkening
cries,
 of Dove's. . .
made beautiful,
peace be with me.

As songbirds sing
the beautiful grandeur
of rose gardens 
made lively,
exuberant, 
a splendor of bliss.

As wine bearers
fathom,
the essence of wrath,
a gentle darkness,
a widow's hastening kiss.

By way of coven,
be it not foul, 
and also full
of such,
a bestowment of blessings,
of tears, of gentility.

There ponderous,
my Hecuba,
amidst your poisonous
scope of treason,
Mars and senility.

Conceit upon 
this morrow's eve,
of sacrilege and blaspheme
concerto phantasm.

Yes, for tradition calls,
upon entrance of estate,
made unbeknownst,
no proclamation of thee,
a luciferus ******.

As a racing menace
bewildered,
by the means
to wound obscene.

Ungored, at length,
a mandrake's gesture,
bitterness 
and more poison
of undine.

Where'll'st be,
betaking your ambience,
of twilight autumn
oh fine.

A lecherous Eve,
a serpent's wisdom,
to set her on,
oh perilous eyes
of mine.

As perching swans
upon the revealed
ides,
of Zeus.

Gentle lady,
I beg thee,
a pardon 
for the ibis goose.

Of thee, 
the essence Diana,
as graceful 
as no other Ceaser.

Fleeting perils
of doubt, 
madness, 
and glee, 
what it takes 
to please her.

Oh shadows
of temptation,
a scurried passion
of the Abydos
at Hades

A gentle Isis,
mistress 
to
the Lots of Salem,
o'er plentiful
maids.

Though 
to scathe
a peasant maiden,
be it not of chivalry
due rotten chaste.

The kingdoms
of decadence
and decay. . .
of the morrow,
a consent
of distaste.
