Coranalled with ruby lumanecents, She purified her hands sanguinary, Disdaining her heart's curt, desperate repents, She plunged into Phlegethon pensively. Like a mother nursing her one child, A metal bottle played her heart's succor, She saw the world: imperfect, defiled, And laid herself to rest on the wood floor. Then she prayed, "If I die before I wake, I pray the lord my branches don't break"

For Phlegethon
Coranalled with ruby lumanecents, She purified her hands sanguinary, Disdaining her heart's curt, desperate repents, She plunged into Phlegethon pensively. Like a mother nursing her one child, A metal bottle played her heart's succor, She saw the world: imperfect, defiled, And laid herself to rest on the wood floor. Then she prayed, "If I die before I wake, I pray the lord my branches don't break"
