Apparition Eyes

My girl has apparition eyes, two crystal balls,

says she speaks to the ghouls in the rivers

and seas; sets 'em free for the realm of hope

and mercy, on their perilous journey from 

mortal to evermore 

At night she drapes herself over the bed, 

spread like the hangman's cloak I am 

invited to imbibe the Elixir of her eternity

Breath of wine, tongue of passion 

and the intoxicating entrapment of able

hands which journey like knowing angels 

The ascent of my shaking Spirit into Heaven's 

bliss-numb grandeur As though nothing 

could ever hurt again As though the moment

could only be pure Walking along the summits

of imperious mountains, jaws of God

Mastication into the incineration of a contented 

nothingness

When I find myself back in the realm of her flesh,

back on the flatness of her chest... there

with her tattoos and her chains and her incense 

and those cats (her familiars), she cradles my

unworthiness Even in the quiet - 

She is magnificent

She sees what others can see and from whence she moves like no one else can. You are blessed in her.

Hey RBK!

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for reviewing two pieces of my work yesterday. I'm always grateful when someone reads my work, let alone taking the time to leave a review.

Hope I can return the favour soon, and I hope that life provides you with positivity and inspiration.

Best,

C. Peril
