the moon falls
shattering
small fragmants
pierce my skin
my heart
pecks holes
through my ribs
as i bathe
(it's a sin)
in my own
impure blood
smearing
the most beautiful picture
of a death
long overdue
red
almost black
paints the ground
about me
given tme
oddities grow
a rose that's seared
by dragon's breath
somehow burning
a constant death
the great eye
that sees all i've failed you
winks at me
in childish mirth
a tree whose roots
have twisted to the sky
leaves it's leaves to squirm discomfort
not meant for dry packed earth
oil seeps here
wetting
unlidded eyes
on stalks as long as
nothing
forever staring
an accusation?
a disfigured child
two mouths for eyes
trying to cry
so pathetic
when all it can do
is stream these useless words
somehow
in thier own right
just as beautiful
as she'll never be
dusty reflections
in guilt framed mirrors
ache to trap us
forever in their hungry glass

i loved the whole thing, but i esp liked the second stanza/section/chunk/whatever. everything from "given time" to "as she'll never be" was just great. kinda reminds me of #12 on Dark Lotus for some reason.
and now, the traditional:
great write, keep it up.

the line structure (or lack thereof) was amazing. The whole thing was great and the imagery was bloody brilliant.
