Stygian shadows devour my fall:
Incarnadine structure the greatest of all!
I fathom this flesh by transgressions been moored
In depths of iniquity forevermore.
Dreams been hallowed in glistening chest:
Thought sanctity born to be laid to rest!
Clouds of soil drape the skies,
My chalice strewn in grave on high.
Shockwaves emitted from brain do rend
In soul conviction of celestial mend,
The thew of ebony phantoms draw
Blood from heartbeat left unthawed.
A parcel wayworn and torn by winds,
And by time: the fruitage of illusory sin!
In lungs my oxygen laced and maimed,
Tis’ miasma of youth impaled by pain.
Are pining for flight the days of yore
Into the horizon of virtue’s dawn.
Yet a specter reaps my holy days
Until incorporeal, for eternity shamed.
Yet is there hope for the soul accursed?
A susurrus spins a tale of mirth:
Though once incarcerated by dirges doom,
A melisma tranced a deluged moon.
Forlorn in the skies by nebulous stars,
Yet efflorescence cocoons that body marred.
Gravity transcended by a coronal soar,
Lightness abides at aethers door!
Prophecy of the cosmos exhales at last!
Rapture divined red-shift once masked!
O extol His radiance, O relinquish your souls!
That The Transcendental shall forge ye whole!
This piece was written for an autobiographical piece that is currently in the works. The theme behind this poem quintessentially lies in the concept of strewn dreams. The dreams are scattered by the chaos that can accompany the vulnerability and susceptibility of one's youth; therefore, in this case it applies to my aspirations which were squandered by the ignorance of denigratory individuals. My approach to formulating this poem was through the methodology of free write so it has a very abstract imprecision with regards to specific details. I hope that you can appreciate this poem despite the fact that its meaning may be quite obscure and difficult to comprehend as this is a work constructed through spontaneity as opposed to premeditative forethought . PLEASE, IF YOU HAVE ANY CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK ON ELEMENTS YOU ENJOYED OR WHAT YOU FEEL WILL HELP IN FOSTERING IMPROVEMENT EXPRESS IT FREELY. I'm keenly interested in ascertaining your thoughts and feelings regarding this work! Thank you in advance and God Bless!!
