A silken web, wove intricate
a gossamer of kiss denied
to sip of Holy Grail too late
alive, within the funeral pyre.

The fate of death
a block from home
to rattle bars of comfort's cage...
a whisper's breath
that chills my bone
a spark that fires restless rage.

A parch of thirst--
may heavens burst---
and drown my sorrow of alone...
to touch the face
of thing misplaced
and wake, to call my life my own.

Serenity--

and drown my sorrow of alone...
to touch the face
of thing misplaced
and wake, to call my life my own.
