the virgin apple x a shot of eden.
By Exodus
in the spring,
it swells with crimson.
spills out like daisy fumes
callused and opened for infection
the sky bleeds blue again
x the world is cured x
the brand new beginning.
the tide dragged in the savoir
and he washed up, and cried with the land.
his heart is paved with red and poison
hes come back again,
less than he ever was
the blindfold is lifted
and we see again
with the passion of a childs eyes.
x we watch it destroy x
and theres no washing away.

I see you're experimenting with lots of new things... that's the way to go! I love how you've incorporated more abstraction into your work, but the x's kind of throw me off (I keep reading them as actual x's). Overall, though... absolutely infectious work
