The Phantom of Malice

22 Feb

Teeth shattering

Stars changing colours

Kick me while I’m down

Got my brain on loop

Hollow to the core

Can see it all before

This resoluting light

Diminishes beneath

Its baron flame

Weight gone up

Weight gone down

The disillusioned scales

The relevance

Of one soul

Spirit from other lives

Why are we all here?

Creating sugar content

When we need protein

And gold

Masters echo their wisdom

Through paved corridors

Of candlelit millennia

Bony knees on sunken concrete

Lest we choose the wrong path

Forlorn in concept

Weaken my strength

And surrender

To solitude

Of fictitious lies

Lifetimes of intersecting paths

Time’s sentence eclipses the notes

Of labour

Hour upon decade

Millisecond to deaths

Grace your unique mannerisms

Hands that build monumental

Sculptures

From days dancing under

Solipticious suns

I’ve held my meditation

Searching for the reason

Beyond insanity to reckoning

Why do I introspect over

Fractured minds

Nasty words spoken from those lips

It is not a need

But a clarity of truth

Bereft your toes on icy seas

Sorcerer’s fire wounded

By the knight of swords
