Attar

A Poem by Perdition

I have lifted the hours to silence
set lies from all remains
and remorse upon the skin with 
windows cracked to rain

But the want to be of shutter, 
that row of innocent hue
the eye that bends and keeps from night
to reveal what won't construe 

How they sleep 
I do not know

How they dream 
it is a candle blazed on winter's artery 

Tomorrow I go again into the sphere of blades
a ghost within myself bruised to thought
and all that's left with May upon the door
let knock be done or shunned once aptly kinned

But what of love from love that never comes
that hell of bliss that word from words begin
