An asteroid ascends;
Affects aphelion.
Anomaly adapts
An astral as ascribed.
Absolute accomplished
Auroras apparent
Art arranging above.

As the lights of the day bled into each other
a silence, like a shady veil, fell between us.
It was more like a worn-out pilgrim:
he came home to stay:
placing his muddy shoes on the doorway
for knowing no wayfarer ones remained.
Without a shadow of a doubt, I used to angelize you.
And you needed no enlightening for your still
kept sharpening your shiny blades.
Now I am at aphelion;
further from the breathing blaze than ever
yet still I am capable of coming clean:
to realize that your shadow only paled me.

It is before your very eyes
That sons grow to be men
While under the same guise
Daughters turn into women.
You have seen many births
Of tears and nakedness;
Even of countless deaths
In riches and wretchedness.
You have lived many years
From aphelion to perihelion,
And witnessed many fears
Of the inhabitants of Zion!
Oh, I wonder what you are,
I marvel at what you are not.
You are not so close nor far,
But you are a life I have got!

DREAMLESS ALPHABETS
Aphelion my long time residence
Banished into a dreamless existence
Cannibals surround the escape routes
Diligently feeding my doubts
Eagerly anticipating my demise
Ferociously preparing for my conclusion
Gathering hippocampus, for seasoning
Hors d’oeuvres, bloody temporal lobes
Impulsive, angry, throwing away all reasoning
Jaded, crawling towards the scavengers
Knees embedded with gravel
Lesions seeping into my rib cage
Maggots, waiting at the next stage
Nightmares finally come true
Ominous my exile has been
Paralyzing everything, except fright
Quickly, carnivores begin to dance in delight
Rehearsing for the end of my rancid reality
Screaming, submitting myself as a sacrifice
Talons swoop down, and transport me
Uric acid pouring down, singeing my curls
Valedictions will just delay my final eviction
Wearily, watching, awaiting my crucifixion
Xenon, pestilent odors rise from my body
Yelping orange, yellow flames, the last seen
Zooming out of this world, to be forever free
