Deify

Posted on September 9, 2018January 18, 2019 by Torrey

Gossamer Skin

Plastic Eyes

I couldn’t save anyone,

not matter what I did.


Eat my Sins,

O Chilled Hemlock.

Throw bones, 

before the wire 

passes through you.

As Tragic Queens sit,

Their throne built of half-tied

lineage and

ferocity unsullied.

As Amorphous Masses

scream for nothing

and everything,

though they are loved.

As Growing Wolf,

Prince,

above All things,

devours once more.


My machinations were not enough.

as I watched you perish.

the end was inevitable.

As I gave in to the voice,

and moved to the next, 

I realized,

this one Infinity was not

all of them.

You were unscathed,

unbroken, 

in the next.

I woke,

still covered in sweat,

and felt my eyes,

rubbing the wetness

away.

Which infinity is this?
