The dark sky beckons the celestial mage
With age-old runes and devilry
When shadows begin to cover the moon
A cloud wafts by and laughs at me

Gauze arms prance
between the limbs,
a mourning pines
when cloudline dims.
A tangled wood
that dangles loose,
silence screams
this delicate noose.
Devilry unravels
and moon has bled
king of puppet
cuts off life's thread.

Born on the 13th –
must be fortunate –
of May, she`s not scared
and ever stays playful.
She grasps firmly springs
and jumps cause of mercy
into the gist of humble,
the very observation.
Belittled the devilry,
touched by the fortune
she's glad that a man
fathomed her dreams.
A suppurating crater
festers and gapes
in my heart
desiccated by hordes
of plunderers
who gorge on marrow
enshrouded in crevices
where love pleads
for refuge and succour
before gelid goons
controlling a pedigree
of sycophants
reframed to shield
their masters
from imagined devilry.
It beckons, this chalice of night,
brooding beneath the limpid film
of gossamer and stolen light.
It preys, this chalice of night,
on satiations longing need
to quaff, to quench, a darkened seed.
It’s curse, this chalice of night,
it’s emptiness a lunar arc
that starts and ends as fluid dark.
It holds, this chalice of night,
a taste of sanguine revelry’s
moonlit curse of devilry.
