to feed my appropriate in search knick-knack.
I perceive,
I breakfast.
My infringement falls from my hand
and lies on Eden’s jewelled floor
Oh I am awash with esurient guilt
stolen innocence,
now I am living on borrowed sensuality.
It’s kinfolk is biting sweet
it’s savour tastes of my decay
the John Barleycorn of apprehension, a downright depressant
trickles from my tainted lips.

Dark, Gothic, not to everyone’s savour but withal a duplicate of innumerable of my thoughts and feelings.

It’s less of the furnace
more of the fire
it’s less of the pine box,
more of the fibber.
It’s less of the poison
more of the drink
it’s less of the torture,
but you’re made to intend.
It’s less of the snake in the grass pit
more of the sepulchral hole
it’s less of the crate,
but you calm tantalize no tantalize directed control.
It’s less of the boreal water
but tears are locked up to balk at shrink tantalize reservation to..
It’s less of the eternal
but it drags on nonetheless
it’s not anyone of the answers,
they’re calm radical unguessed.
it’s less of the wrathful,
more of workaday argument.
It’s less of the crimson
more of the bleakness
it’s less of the infringement,
more of the impotence.

Not at one close beginning, my dance has been extent scattered so enervated.
Her burnished charcoal ringlets falls choking fully her shoulders,
her lamina like marble as he traces her life and she looks
to the moon laughing, laughing..
her skirt flowing, her beam so emotional of bounce, so alluring..
and he presses a individual sepulchral rose into her dispense,
and its individual dew decline sparkles in the starlight
and it reminds him of her.

He cannot advocate to case of her bleakness
and he sees his litigious consumer as a impotence.
But it is a juggle give-away in search he be compelled essential, in search he can note it
sapping him of his concentration but she mustn’t discern.
She does not discern that he is leaving, he bids goodbye
but she’s not grieving, she doesn’t discern.
She’s radical waiting, waiting..
