CURSED AFTER DEATH

lost even when they say found

Insane lays cheated
across these oceans
sheeted galleons bled on waves
trusted crucifix broken pieces
gathered by crowded hands,

Speeding cloudy haze smoked on futures
burning grave
besides the shadow, I have chained
bleaching love drips into moon-shaped tears
crashed into death draining the bar
scented forests walked  on crystal glass
she weaved today
into suicidal past

so walls unpainted empty of art
veins spilling breath

tendrils crack this skull
flayed flesh
feasting on earth, tender hold
escaped into life
drenched but unfound

These words pulled me straight in.  And then, followed by the beauty of "sheeted galleons bled on waves" I knew I was reading  pure poetry! I really do love this x
