Literature Text

Skirted crux still tyrant loom
A wash to cleanse the earthen peat
Cling deadened neat as twining doom

Dancing rose in gallows hang
A fealty prayed with whispering
And sing come severed tolling rang

Rocky shoal conspired to dale
A task impartial of its bars
To let its mars cascade to pale

Fingers in a holding stance
The text invite a deceased mind
To share the kind of dying chance

Dress in sequence has no threads
And blended ties sway with the lines
As does the fine and roughened bled

Sombre on the bruising cheeks
Flush see its waters cast away
To ending day the noose will seek

A flower floating on a tide
Have weakness for its will to leave
Believe it made its choice to die

Crown gone weightless burden passed
And rule and regulations give
The ceaseless last to let one live

Wounds unhealed fresh as eyes
See existence for all its bears
And share the moment left behind

Outside on the cusp still one
Impacted in a shifting cloth
End willing done to send one off

Arms fallen in flesh of age
Stained colourless as history
Let be there when they turn their page

Endless symbol show no veins
Nor understanding imprinting
As differences bring other names

Along the capsule self-contained
A garden fed wholly on ink
Of blinking groves of what remained
