I feel the black breath settle on my neck A black sun communicates with me There is an imaginative power at its source It is like the purple stain on a drawn wine cork My vision is occupied by it, it twinkles and crackles I see a scent hang in the air, an anesthetising intoxicant Numbing, cold, like watching gargoyles in the street I know the winds speech it has an oneiric vocabulary That drifts among the scarlet stained scent Swirling through my crystallized thought Causing a pristine vacillation in my mind That echoes like a vacant cobalt night Disturbing the fundamental enigma That is the centre of my being I close my eyes

Void
I feel the black breath settle on my neck A black sun communicates with me There is an imaginative power at its source It is like the purple stain on a drawn wine cork My vision is occupied by it, it twinkles and crackles I see a scent hang in the air, an anesthetising intoxicant Numbing, cold, like watching gargoyles in the street I know the winds speech it has an oneiric vocabulary That drifts among the scarlet stained scent Swirling through my crystallized thought Causing a pristine vacillation in my mind That echoes like a vacant cobalt night Disturbing the fundamental enigma That is the centre of my being I close my eyes
