A POEM

Let red blood flow

Leave supple hearts go

Impart all true loves lament

Broken hearts give no assent

And should you leave it as you say

Cast these shattered shards away

Healing lights may cast no glow

Emulate as Satan shows

Gustatory to the lips

Disregard illustrious kiss

Predator pray parasite host

Cognate evil at its most

Adams apple stuck in throat

Convex caving sugar coat

Vend late dreams to confrere’s ghost

Beguiled phantom sentries boast

Closure be it that you seek

Garden gates of evil reek
