A watchful eye on an eight month angel.
A memory faded by a thousand years.
Transformed into king at thirteen
by a golden haired queen of the land.
The crown weightless, the septor rigid.
Floating up steps, the torch ready to be passed.
Frigid blue from two feet of cotton.
The rise and fall of waves has ceased.
The world a distorted mirror.
A skewed looking glass of judgement.
The bitter taste of eye sweat.
A plethora of coherent thoughts.
Words of the wise to sooth.
Words of a mother to comfort.
With the strength of a thousand selfs,
two words whimper through my lips.
My soul is an empty wallet.
Let me taste copper.
Let my black heart
rooted in sorrow
be injected with novocaine.
Let vengeance course like rapids
through the veins of you both.
