Onto The Name of The Maker
A heart surfaces
Within deceptions' ink
Pumping this liquid
To systems
Without name
The chemical looms
Over, unnamed systems
Reeking its stench to all
A wis-o-wisp
Stationed within
That non-carnal chamber
Of hearts
Protected,
Thumping silently
Behind the scenes
Its purpose unknown,
To itself.
Yet, waiting and patient
Till that spear
With milky coconut tip
Penetrates that chamber
Restoring the rotting,
Salting muscular pumps
Till that wisp
Emblazens....
That inferno rages,
Incasing every function
Thought, and word
And grows forever more
Driving those automatic systems
Forward
Beating to that sweet
Lullaby...
