We
were kings
in the realm
of distorted things
Indulging in unmitigated lust that it brings.
She
was queen
A pillar
of strength incarnate
busy pillaging the futures of lesser beings.
The moments I lied
the dreams
the spies
tongues untied
The kingdom crumbled.
Walls I built
Accounts
the cries
threats of love
and roots upended.
Spirals speak before they're worded.
Now the future is in the rear-view.

The kingdom crumbled.
Walls I built
Accounts

and roots upended.
Spirals speak before they're worded.
Now the future is in the rear-view.
