A lot of fucking nothing
Unwanted dreams of tragedies, screaming widows Men hanged from pepper trees, minnows teasing Flesh from shamed maidens drowned, stoneladen A memorial, a memento mori for a senior stonemason to pave A stone that will stay, for another day to read my name All of life was more than a game I came to know that…

necromancy
Sights reminders of acid rides, the spine confines Vials of fine wine which indulged provoke elevated frenzy A grave barely able to contend with its meal, my spell lends Strength to the dead sufficient to bend bars, coffinlid scarred With nail marks, an iron bar, a concubine in a lion mask dying Bleeding out upon…

skullcult
Cephalocentric, mind home to hosts and heaven Pleasant wonders impressed Upon the depths between sulci Venerating an acéphale, head severed brutally from limb’s measure Old king’s skull dipped in molten gold and set with gems Serving as royal goblet to priests, used during dire midnight rites, hems Dripping with the ink of vengeance Stone pillars…
