' I '

I despise the creation

as a lone wanderer

who bottomed once a wonder

to an abyss of blue

 

I despise the foetus

I seeded within

the mother who produced

an infant of wisdom

 

I despise the symphonies

of my creation's curse

whose voices I gifted

from the echoes of mine

 

I despise this halo

that renders me divine

A nimbus of insolence

that burns me alive

 

I despise your journeys

to sanctity's den

for the airs, a legacy

from my immortal breath

 

As an unjust painter

I confess my sins

to the rainbows I drew

with a colourless quill

 

I seize the wonder

cast ages ago

As a triumphant saviour

to the disarmed souls

 

The abyss of blue,

a remnant to bear

the stench of your despair

to my merciless adieu
