The Curse

Moon shares with sun on heavens,
One ventures lands amidst glimpse.
Mystery exudes being,
Earth shatters on sole’s touch.

Hides in fields of blackened strands,
Eyes stare, consuming emptiness.
Lips greet a demonic ember,
Lungs welcome nicotine’s spawn.

Charred wood in his past,
Crumbling orchards, seared with passing.
Life flees, choking from madness,
Harmony dying, fumes poison hope.

Sight visit wreckage at times,
Demons forcing a grin.
Compassion cries, sprouting dews,
On pools of brown spectacle.

Alas, waning limbs release body,
Flames surround engulfing its master.
Soul lost with burn of flesh,
Haunts consciousness corpse once owned.
