Madness echoes; darting lizard tongued through ego ideal
Cinch the cotton jacket tightly straight
So cold … This air that nips sweet reason’s chaste design
.
Fragmented time; murky hauntings of psyche cast shadow
Life organic longing for the dark peace
So cold … Electra, Oedipus, the chaos of Id
.
Tear me
Twist me
Break me
Bleed me
Curse the light to never see me
.
Take me
Turn me
Bend me
Seize me
Curse the night to never free me
.
Maddening echoes; despair the skulking demons whisper near
Foul the breath that channels pretense
So cold … This icing down deep as the Red Tome listens
.
Fragments in time; the rotted corpse tangs the conscience mind
Succulent bits of cherished memories
So cold … Synchronicity winters this choice left to chance
