Shallow the light in my mind's labyrinth
with talons of picador wings
like a voyeur peeping at a fetus
of Michelangelo's David
Festering in the womb night of uterus
hanging by a thread in balsamic vinegar
as I whisper to the ghost, god sent
on a red-eye flight of dark's karaoke
Cataracting through your veins
on my gothic embryo's tambourine
sipping your blood's crimson burgoo
with my gobshite and oarsmen
In murky quarters over my ottoman
of your glorious decay born of devil
with scent of the corpse flower
on a red-eye flight of dark's karaoke
