ignescent painting
Van Gogh's Sunflowers
radiate poetry
South of Heaven
In shadow of the crimson moon admits the devil’s hordes
Eternal death descends decreed by the oblivious overlords
The forgotten of the ignescent inferno raise their swords
Dexterous demons devour and yell as they march towards
Enter Satan’s shore serving despondent deviant destruction
Where grace of love is liquefiable within deluded deduction
Thoughts of freedom fermented with fear in their abduction
Abandoned anguish roams rampant after incursive induction
The harvest of heinous horrors throughout the wasteland
Souls of yesterday yield their yearning in demonic demand
Souls of morrow tormented and tangled where they stand
For Lucifer’s legions laughing have the ulterior upper hand
Now lie misty meadows of a dark daunting decadent dwell
The forests fertile with fescues a feculent foreboding smell
Tempestuous tempest of sorrows surround the satanic swell
We dine & dance in a degenerative dominion of earthly hell.
