An Empire Suffers Its Queen

At intellectual rehab, those scars grieving, our souls to bleeding—as cursed a heart-pulse, to feel by channels, as one resists—this pilgrim thrive, as torn for cultures, afforded this last dance—where mother’s hesitant, as father’s suspicious, while a psych pushes at buttons—to dove a secret, or secrete a spirit, while we soar at pretenses; to lie by covers, our daughters to warfare, our flesh itchy and swollen; insofar, a dream, our classifications, to ponder submarines, as effective this sprawled catastrophe; while never it would, but tortures to graves, as invested in pure satisfaction: such tender thunder—to fix a statue, while tugging through wars—to greet her goddess, as feelings arise, while too empathetic with pains: our deaths to lights, as furious that complexion, while hidden from sunlight; where mother appears, as aunty defends—this portal adrift through times: our blotted faces, as pure leviathans, or more this fiery dragoness. It became realism, faced in expressionism, at treasured concerns this terror of isms; as never a soul, of worth to gold, while fleeing through our lower regions; to afford a feeling, while that culture breathes, our daughters stuck at survival: that explosive ankh; that torrid congestion; our faces to northern winds—while insecure chases, at hopes that redemption, while treated as sludge. We could to magnets, that man in his arena, while another pretends for first-place…but hell to passions, clashing for falling, at waves to exhaust a terrible pash—that craving bleeding, our roses asthmatic, such as prose suffering that doting spine—insomuch, to perish, as embarrassed by love, this obscure feeling arriving at desolation; indeed, our reckless nights, to awaken at sobriety, while popping fiercely a fist of illnesses; as something beautiful, those immortal sprinkles, while a fantast forgets that humans are instinctive—this cold embrace, as faced with doubts, by charges a morbid soul; as death would imbue us, our screams to climaxes, those passions aborted for love—where he stands, at full appeals, a lawyer by brains. It can’t to chance, albeit, as shared, where such plurals arrange self as singular entities; so life to abortions, this harvested self, while gelid a river, forsaken to brooks: those soft petals, as crazed a session, while composed too much to avert—that scandal of brains, this misprint in science, our aches to warm illusions; where others watch, while sensing heart-webs, as occasioned to flee through caves…those gravid ashes, that terrible comment, this fire as dormant a heart-escape—where thoughts are graphic, as imposing through absence, while a fool sits in utter darkness: that manipulation, as too keen for defeats, while senseless at sensations wages wars; that pitted feeling, while tugged asunder, a bit too intricate for pleading pardons.

When it comes to this interior realm, we must take seriously those arts employed to juggle that inner terror-dome: that person as lethal, our attractions as sequels, and our nights at rotations.
