smear-

rat’s tooth

bone kiss

sea of marrow

sea of flesh

a blackened sky through

which the carnival rides

a bleached moon

salve of no purpose

a retort

scraped from the banquet

of the skull

in my dreaming I die

meat dissolving in frozen light

the blade bites deep

strikes vein

kiss of the skyline

words retract into flesh erased by

the depths of the void

bone tooth

sea of rats

kiss of marrow

sea of flesh

in my dreaming my death-stripped flesh

burning to ashes

a black vault opens

the eyes roll back

a taste of blood

a smear

of electric light

assassin-

the winds have

 absolved

the assassin

walls

breaking from the

corners of

the finality of the sky

churned flesh gutters like

a final flame

the teeth rip the skull to

shredded laughter

the meat of the impoverished

tongue wilts in the

after-birth

of desire’s quarry

the nothingness of listless stone

whispers

the breath expired escapes

like a whipped canine

the assassin walls shed frugal tears

the cracked skin of nothing ever

splits beneath the veils

wordless smiles devoured traced by the

skin of the dark

the cold weight etched

void of elixirate

of purity

the Shadow breathes in endlessly

burning grating flesh

at the edge of the abyss

the true laughter of denuded ice

words the eviscerations that

the silence feeds upon

as the silence

erases

grave-digger-

obliterated sun

a jugular bled

beneath the shadow

of night’s sky

a bulb of laugher

birthing

in the

delight of death

the breath is night also

a harlequin desire

in a gilded locked cage

the sequins of the winds drag

the entrails

from the blood-streaked dark

a collision of bone the charity laid to waste

in a labyrinth of laughter

the fingers trace the edge of the blade

skull of exhumed particles of rotting blood-

soaked sands

laid to rest in the death of X.

(X. reeks of filth in the silent amber of

The artificial light)

a shattered window of existence fades out

the embalming night endless peels from the earth...

a smear of the grave-digger

vibrating

in violent coloured smiles

draped shroud of atrophic wasted funereal tears.
