Body of shame. It haunts in tatters. All this grief smites all that matters, 'til there's no one left to blame. It has the fading scars of good ol' times plastered like flaking paint: Tattoos of radiant beach sunsets; forgotten "beneath" a shore of its memories like an ordinary pebble under a mountain of stones. Ethereal grasp never touching a thing, yet finding itself touched by desire. Where goes the time? Past yet to come. It has broken scales that balance wine, yet it's sober to passion's drum.
