Shivers in the Summer Lime

And so the licensed redeemers heave their wrath,
and subtract the lakes from unbending lovers.
Surrender your subtle cracks,
the moonlight bleeds dying wounds.
The winter puddles
breed bubbles
of frozen stares;
a madman’s despair,
a colorless affair.
The sentinels herd us into mirroring screens
of letterless dreams and the past
reposes in the shade of Enigma’s blossomless trees.
Wilting petals of turbulent sand dunes;
we were once so human hypnotized by death’s tune.
Our stampede silenced the instruments and hung them in their pieces;
surrendering scattered shreds to suffer limply on the burning cylinders.

the last fiery wisps concealed behind lids of glacier steel
And though I see the flames, my skin nestles in a chilling landscape.

With broken spears and tilted arrows,
we shadow the dance of seduction,
waiting for the sun to rise.
