gloss.

By Corinthian

+





singing
the cross


immantled+
insidious




& this
may be my
last sleep


I
am
ill.



did you
not know?


obscure
and dizzy.


scissors
sparrow.feather
and
snowflakes
filling my
ungolden boxes




+

hush.
hush.
hush.
intermingled lady
saints .


luxurious fool
must you
hang all your
lovers in the same attic?

such
an
accursed
scene.

for.

my passion
is very violent
darkly blue



A dying
breed
am I.



but before
I go
I should
conquer
your mind.




I have been
a viewless
mistress




unseen
away
expiring .
a banished
charm
your
slow foreign
chime


clock
tick
your
delusive
hymns
and you
have never
touched once
my alonely
palm.


in my head.
it feels like shattered
blue chandelier
glass.


mystical
lore
imagined
man

warm
tears
holy heat
and
I
am
unstable
in this glittering hour .

    I have been misunderstood once too often by a lover, they could never truly know me...... Always beautiful Corinthian, as are you.

    ...I see a mistress disillusioned with her current state, wasting indigo 'violent passion'...

    Sounds like a lament for the loss of leaving something behind and moving on, and as Nae said, the "attic" line was indeed epic, thanks.
