the Aeneid

the delicate blossoming of budding flowers, secretes poisonous ardor. tainted by the loving thorns of death, my veins carry nocuous nectar. and demeter wails, her garden polluted and infused with ichor deadly. and weeds rampage, absorbing my heart's nutrients. till inseminated with a plethora of nightshade and datura. my body now a mere vessel of your deathly grove of misery, delicately blooming dark myrtle. a lost soul in my fields of mourning.
