Memories of old

Memories of old

Clenching jaws
follow new-found laws
Blast to cause
breath in pause
raking fingers turned to claws
revealing the flaws

We diffuse
the powers to use
Golden hues
fragrant dews
a conflagration to choose
aching sunset bruise

Bodies hold
memories of old
tales untold
lo behold
they speak of the soul once sold
for silver, not gold

Reading of the poem:

Kyrie - Antaeus
