Palace

Across the sea, beheld to war
Didn't believe, the cosmic spoils
Upon the shore and shimmering
Erected columns beckoning
How tall
Palatial abode
Before you
What else was there?
And after
What else was there?
I will come to your chambers
I will rewrite the pages
Once more
And then again
Bodies melt in the ether
Here we lay
Sprawled as the seasons
Wander and whirl
There just might be a way
Take form and appear wholly
You dance and roam the halls of our home
Such brilliance, all holy
Weeping night
To follow
Coward day
So hollow
And the dark of June came with a swansong
How fickle these streams?
How puny the heart?
When you've had enough of me
When the body forgets the meaning
Give praise, give your acrimony
Commands you make, you solely

In Vituperation
08:47
|
|||
On every lonesome corner of my heart you stood
And shadows gathered the night
When the world ends
And I am futile and you deliver
Your bleakest verses, banal formalities
In this dim and quiet hour
Floating away
Mercurial
Recall a feeling
There is a longing and a stillness
Inscribe the annals
Femur to blood
Autumnal concession
Movement ever so sacred
Phantom queen
What did you see?
Oh, oracle
What do you know?
In death we gleam
Enfold me
Encircle me
Enclosе me
In vituperation

To begin
A seat at the table
Of our yearning
To love
The wheels of this great turning
Dispel the grey aura you've known
Deepen the joy, stars aglow
How we wept when the birds sang
How we spoke when the morning came
Remember, surrender
I suppose
We've done this before
Instrumental earthly charm
Kiss me when you call
(It's been so long)
Draped in pearls come twist my arm
I want nothing if not all
(The prayеrs at dawn)
Channel
What do you seek?
Conjure
All that you seek
Mysteriеs all untold
The future now unfolds
Such twisting plots of old
Tapestry woven
Just like running molten gold
To fill us mortal moulds with whispers
Listen closely
Miss it, don't miss it
Emanate
Aeon of grief
Announce yourself
Lord of the meeting rivers
Reveal
Your reverie
Take what you will
Lady of the scowling seas
The word is writ
The hammer strikes
Compelling
Glimmers of aurorean light
Bellowing
Eternal song
Magisterial
What place have you in my histories?

Paean Emerging
10:51

We came upon this mountain
We crumble on our own
Impel the flesh in ritual
We pray that the words won't harm us
We walk the lonely road
Aloft, the hymns of bereavement
Enrobe us with ornaments
One for the plight
Two for the flame
Romance returns, refilled our cups
Three for the day
Four in your name
We'll do it again
This painful march
Ever winding myth
Our desperate chants
The years erode
So go easy, these bones are not cold
Go easy, our work is not done
It's just begun
Beneath the moon I think of you
And the stars laugh back at me
We bend and break the arches
We flood the vestibule
Cusp of summer, idyll hue
We stretch this life incarnate
We claim the land once burnt
And veer through realms above and below
Onward!
Perpetual!
Enthrone us with orb and light
Make haste, make haste
Distillation
Of time abound
I can't forget
I know I'll try
You speak to me
Of former loves
Annul the mystery
What is shall be
Sequence of dreams
These oceans bring
I can't renounce
I know it's mine
Open to me
Wild and surreal
A lasting gaze
A closing scene
