Spark of Humanity
A swirl of lighted fire
And eternal damnation.
A scorching of skin
And a pecking of flesh.
A loss of all,
A gain of more,
A paradise lost,
But I will make my own.
A hand of hubris,
An undeserved peace,
The shell of a pagan god,
But I do exist.
A wanderer of earth,
A crippled wretch,
A diamond turned to dust;
Yet, I still have time.
A tormented spirit,
A rage against the light,
A life of uselessness;
However, I will be a god, again.
Love
Love
A clash of Promethean heat,
War of ancient time is fought
Between these woolen sheets.
Drops of sweet
Sweat, something unable to be taught
Until we two meet.
Cool hands, warm feet,
Bodies twisted, sin stained lot,
Compounded in a secret place, lies discreet.
But now the sleet
Has come and chills what’s sought,
And we don’t meet.
No more saccharinely sweet
Moments of being caught
Unaware of our conceit.
We held our time in sheets;
In each firefly we caught,
But the years are fleet.
Eternity is where we shall meet.
