6 Imix
Red Rhythmic Dragon
I descend at Height
of Day
Mind awake
Eyes
wide open –
I find dead my
Maidenhead --
A Land of Love
strewn with Bones
Dry white Skeletons lying
on Stones –
Life decayed/ Care
delayed
Turns a Landscape
deathly gray
Wind blows through Bones –
Sounding moans, both
high and low
For Years and
Generations
No Family here –
Bones alone
Shame eats the Flesh
of Love
A gaping Maw of
guilty Acts
Consumes the Meat
that might sustain us –
Furies - Harpies
dive
To take the Smile
from smiling Lips –
A Hand too
frightened to caress
Hits hard and hits
again –
Hearts break open –
Red Rage glows –
Hear the Breeze
Blowing through
Bones –
Too little
Tenderness, too late
Can neither stop the
Wind
Nor alter Fate.
