Venom
My Saturn pricked from thorns
Blood red stains appeared
Drunk in all the pain
In this deafening sphere
Lost inside this maze
Likely insanity's near
I grasped the rope so tightly
'Til I reached the atmosphere
The Polaris I'd gazed
Proved it unworthy
For the face of doom was released
Without delay
My voyage betrayed me
As I turn to port,
Pulse and heartbeat ceased
Blissful miss
With a cyanide kiss
Hell!
That's what it is...
Never again will I touch thy lips,
Lest I will dive
Holding hands with gravity.
