Descent


Heat, whispering along a sea of unrecognizable eyes,

Stirring within a yearning for indecipherable passion,

Fattened by icy vessels sightless but seen,

Howling along the depleting depths of debt,

Clamoring with binding temper,

Justified in the shapeless remarks of a cynic,

Assaulting the frail limbs drowned by mistakes.

The fire dies out as its bearer descends into

Treachery.
