Crossing an eternal desert
the soul draught is constant
Your grace and the glory
in the skin peeled corpse
and gravity grows on you stronger
to drag you beneath the sand
to bury you belly full of pearls
For you have swallowed in your distress
the string of pearls
you pulled in through the blood pools
Glory Black
Rest assured as you were
in your grace
Revel featherless plucked bare
as the peacock stranded
under the scorching sun
under the vultures circling
That string of pearls
your grace
scattered by the vultures
Your dried corpse
