Ultra Violent Light


Dark grey matter
manifest crimson flow tendacies
Fade to black thoughts 
formaldehyde revealed thru scope sight
Scarlet droplets trace a fetal prone outline;
such a morbid delivery ... 
a yellow tape, premature plight

Coffin borne mutilated bodies 
with bullet death birthmarks:
Revolver uttered first cries of last rites
A morgue spectrum of short wave anger — 
Trigger hatred
blinded by ultra violent light

Living in crypt darkness,
metal barrel skin worms catacomb move  
with cadaver quickness
towards the UV light
Leaving iron-copper tracks of desecration,
as a spectral flatline 
guides their hooked pellet mind

Cherry bomb pulmonary flashes 
of ultra violent light
show the infra red, spherical graveyard
shining deathly bright
Sadly visible 
from the firmament height
