Embedded in scarlet folds,
between the loops,
_simmers_
a tempest repressed;
feral tenor of its
soundless whispers
piercing through
the ivory cage
contained too long;
now a beast
_untamed_
dragging its talons
across my flesh
for the ink
it hunts
Embedded in scarlet folds,
between the loops
_rattles,_
a thought...
_Unleashed._

Embedded in scarlet folds,
between the loops,
_simmers_
a tempest repressed;
feral tenor of its
soundless whispers
piercing through
the ivory cage
contained too long;
now a beast
_untamed_
dragging its talons
across my flesh
for the ink
it hunts
Embedded in scarlet folds,
between the loops
_rattles,_
a thought...
_Unleashed._
