59 YEARS

 Eyes which laid with sun and blade
weeping solitude saved
  forest socket
cavern stage

raged a begger fallen at age
God seeping across the spat delusion
spelling in scratch this married haze

sewn so many shrouds
eaten from every sage
cursed all mothers in hate
loves perfect page
down a hall ,black,dark,
sits a wolf
created scorned bitten
lied too ,

This man
 pieces lost
forgotten on bed and in light
unseen while washed
drowning in couplet overflowing
dreams in crimson horror
the smile
a gothic toothless tomorrow

scented truth hovers near
all circle
all touching
this clutching grip on staining whip

night comes double glazed
shutting out his mumbling screams
inside a sealed womb
branded new
scarlet ribbons fall against the whitewash wall

now eyes took by sun and blade
in solitude weeping saved
