Fairy Ring

Floating fragments of our minds Ejected off into asymptotal obscurity Your blood flows through me like silence My body flows through you like a secret A curtain of flesh surrounds like a priestess Your cries reverberate past the gate Of the hospital ward Into the yard where early signs of spring Join us in a dance macabre I became the mandrake The child of a thousand-armed golem Fly blown and burning Luminosity stolen You saw your decomposing dopplegänger down by the pond Protruse limbs sewn on with elytra Contracting, jerking, uncanny and arbitrary A soul trapped in an unfamiliar husk We danced with sulphurized hearts On cursed soil Invisible to the mortal world
