SQUANDERER


Sentinel;

The desires of self
enshrined from naked cell
the single combatant
drowned its kin

I am confused
that you chose to divide
in primordial brine
god and man in coitus

I fear you regret
this separation
prized asunder
spent epochs reconciling

spiritual flesh hood
ouroboros sacrifice
at the steps of Tenochtitlan
the debt of life was paid

I have trod the road to Golgotha
saw no lamb on a cross
saw the beguiled peoples
raise the throne above their heads

of a kingdom hewn of
heavens welts and abscesses
seeking recompense
for their transgresses

to ascend this endeavour
through arboreal birth canal
From which the corpse king
Adoni does breach

willingly they held Horus’s seed
and fawning disciples plead
for the bleating facsimile
to usher in the end

proffer each cut
each weeping wound
give of ourselves to
the son of sky

baptismal blood of Anup
will wash his head
refuse temptation to live
and lap at his falsities

it is in the needing
the creeping digits
claw each thieving mile
for the virulent word

‘I am the way’
they ruck ungraciously
all frenzied flock
to the lowest pit

You should be ashamed
You are perverse
