Thoughts of you,
Ubiquitous; the scales
Of anguis -h,
Layered so,
That the fashion
Of their vessel is
Smooth as glass.
And perhaps
Moving just as slow.
Crimson memories
Laid upon ochre dreams,
The pangs of which;
Sink, burry, pierce
The black, deeper,
Than any serpents fangs.

Wrap me in your coils,
Sweet Lamia; the scales
Of lament,
Layered so,
That the fashion
Of their vessel is
luminescent.
Shining like tiny stars,
Crying from space.
Laid upon black hearts;
Still bleeding red,
Beating silent, as
Larunda's lips, want
For my own psychopomp,
To lead me to
Dark solitude
Of my own Avernis.
