swan of pale
of porcelain white
her halo, a bloody sun
...framing a botticelli plants to rivers.
of petrichor weaves black noise

WHERE HER FRAME DISFIGURES
PALE OF THE SWAN, PAINTED... DYING
WILTING IN RED RIBBONS
LASHING BLACK SAILS, TATTERED MANE
HER MOUTH, DEATH'S HEAD SMILE
TONGUELESS CHOIRS AND BAITED BREATH
EVER WATCHING...
THE ANGELS BEHEADED
BLEEDING THIS HEART, [bad word] CLARITY
RESONANCE...
OF PETRICHOR WEAVES BLACK NOISE

light draped, ephemeral
her stain glass horizon
THE HOUSEGLASS SHATTERED
GLACIAL STARFFELL MEMORIES
CALIGARI HAUNTING...
WITHIN THIS CABINET OF CHANGE
UPON FLUTTER EYE WINGS
in efflorescence, the shadows' sarabande
...an silence was her name... the silence so loud

TIME... CLEANSE THESE SEVERED HANDS OF TIME
RAIN, RAIN AGAIN
WASH AWAY THIS PAIN
O MOONKISSED FLESH
NEW [bad word] OF EARTHEN VAST
LIBERA ME...

RAIN, RAIN, EARTHEN...
SHINE, SHINE
NEW KINGDOM, SHINE
SHINE ON...

dreamer, I
dream o dream
dream, follow me afar
 [bad word] [bad word] 
(ohh) hope...

libera me...
