To Tame The Temporal Shrew -

Pass between the in between to evidence the things unseen for travelers who’ve

passed beneath

Till waxed and flaxen unkempt hair is standard where they hold me here to separate the spirit from the shape

Feast upon the eyes the breath of life falters

Waiting for the sigh a borderline crossed to wonder

Is the shutter shy the film is fading seen through pallid eyes the triad waking

wholly satisfied to cauterize the two that feel alright seeing white light

stepping outward to embrace all the phantom static in frame all these virgins

calling for haste

See the satyr rise to feast upon the eyes closing

She is strange, oh, this death dealing diva

Speaking cause with reluctance to me We will dance while the fever bereaves us To escape from the fortune she weaves

I’m ashamed when the flames sell me fire

For the lantern I’ve made from my skin

Can the stitches hold on through these travels

If the hunger removes them within

As I race through the passage I find you and we dance till eternity ends

And the void is not full up nor empty when the song of our empire begins
