Drenched in the perfume of hell
Impasto of burning oils
forming continents on my
outstretched naked body,
erupting

crimson
stains of shame
stains of shame

Limbs that leave their Nests of
Red to spin the reels of pain
Attach the nails and electrodes
and spin the reels again

Retreating hunger running through the years
carries the scorn on skeleton wings

Storm me thou with the sharpened claw
swift hammer nails that pierce
the shoulder of time
Behind the sunset, with movement regained

For there lie shadows even farther
from the light

I run, devoid of motion,
devoid of name
attach the nails and electrodes
black moratorium, haven of refuge...
