scrying lathe - original poem

 

scrying lathe

stare into the scrying lathe
left in ages settled beneath dust
you disappear in a dusty willow
a browed burst of darkness
aging all our fleshy grooves

turning into smirking werewolves
and men with melting faces
frowning faces with blacked out eyes
beards stretching their hairs to the ground
dripping their gunk on the dark sidewalk

and spiral marble staircase incline
a maniacal grin and dangling eyes
ripping back and forth like pendulums
of a dirty boxing glove
in the back of a catatonically depressed clown

all flesh blanching to white
with eyeballs rolling like quarters in a pinball machine
the darkness clacks on the mirror
forming tiny micro fissures
until everything turns to blackness
and demons rip the world in the half

with their blood dripped
fluorescent yellow clam claws
staring into the core of the earth
with glowing eyes on fire
sleeping in a tent with the devil
doing handsigns
in the woods at night
