Description
ehhhh....this is a quick sketch and my very first using a tablet....

A one-legged spider
spins his web of fools gold
Ensnaring innocence
from the eyes of a youth
Velvet phrases draw
orbs prettier than before
Outlining lips
in amber dyed folds

(you had looked so pretty
with your vacant stare
while silhouette puppets
twirled in your vanity fair)

A garden gnome stood
as tongues flicked across thorns
Mechanical butterflies
scattered in far-flung scorn
The wicked were severed
in their scarecrow’s pose
As dewdrops slid
along wrought iron posts

(Fondled by razors
clenched between teeth
outstretched thumbs
probed underneath)

Charred petals descended
with lead weights attached
Tapping into sides
of crystalline glass
I rubbed my finger
alongside the rim
The flute became filled
with your tears of gin

(Tang of fear
Seared and decayed
Raped my faith
In auras of gray)

My feet dragged patterns
in the earth below
Fate turned stale
in its unopened bottle of prose
Hung by indecision
I swung to and fro
Embalmed by ideas
I twitched in death’s throes

(Spin me around
in an elegant dance
Lost I’ll remain
in this gothic romance)

(Spin me around

Lost I’ll remain
