An Owl in His Brains

By fire’s eyes, those hazel diamonds, those folklore brains—while channeled forever, those restless dreams, severed as destroyed that gothic grin; to return a vision, afloat by half a body, infuriating souls. It dies in textures, to arise by colors, that opaque reality; as chanced his earths, accursed by genetics, as blessed by curses—to infuse monsters, furry for tortures those acorn ghosts, at stages running from owls: while howled a dream; that woman they sought; such terrors by nights spurning mirrors: this cadence by darkness, inverted as lights, spinning through familiarities: that pitted cry; those furnace caves; that type of wouldness while dancing.  We could to fly, ignoring such hells, whereto, tiptoeing our existential(s); as arising is natural, while falling is grace, that visage aloft a crane our forests—while gripping soil, flailing such articles, torn asunder our garments: that gothic music, those sudden trumpets, our horns screaming convictions: if told that life, our running children, accustomed to something appalling: that bleeding stature; that picturesque horror; those neglected travesties; as standing acapella, that quartet of ghosts, at circles to feel his mind: that traffic of literature; that shorn belief; that endless vestibule. By beauty such deaths, our cymbals raging, our souls expanding; to witness fragility, as strength by ancients, this woman a shovel to souls; as cried our comforts, writhing by satin, our tunics flooding rivers; while chased a dream, whereat, a story, racing for fleeing as touched her eyes; that fallen tear, those acidic wings, our purpose at love a musical: those gray minutes; that perfect pitch; that inner soprano: if mere to bodies, that void as feelings, while such a disappointment; so more to dying, if but to touch, our agonies at mountain’s peak. We couldn’t see, our mirror’s valley, or that wailing sylvan, as portrayed in horror’s operas: that breathing aria; that writhing cadenza; our terrors pictured as perfection—while lived his mind, too low for canyons, appalled by nature those comforts; to come to voices, as parted insanity, whereto, our gardens carry an echo: those audible petals; that leaf by grimace; our rains upon a tear.
