The membranous sky
Steals the heat I need
I wilt and perish
The membranous sky
Steals the heat I need
I wilt and perish
Steam rises as the rain strikes
Our reddened skin, mixes with
Our exhalations, passion
I was crushed into
The dust; I gazed heavenward
For my chariot
Once we walked among
The blossoming trees; fragrance
Enveloped us whole.
The sand dried beneath
My feet; I craned my neck to
See the crest, breathless.
She walks on winding
Waves; she cannot forget the
Sea; she knows chaos.
Nevertheless, there
Is less and less of me each
Day, I dwindle down.
hide your secrets, shame
in me like the winter ground
I die so you live .
Scratch the surface of
Civilization, and our
Savagery shows through.
