A light which lives on what the flames devour,
a grey landscape surrounding me with scorch,
a crucifixion by a single wound,
a sky and earth that darken by each hour,
a sob of blood whose red ribbon adorns
a lyre without a pulse, and oils the torch,
a tide which stuns and strands me on the reef,
a scorpion scrambling, stinging in my chest--

is where I dream of you stealing my rest,
haunting these sunken ribs cargoed with grief.

the hemlock-brimming valley of your heart,
and my own thirst for bitter truth and art.
