Perpetual

Everyday, not a day passes that one

dejected tear,

will not run it’s course down the contoured

surface of my consciousness

Everyday, as holy water that saline tear,

zoetically nourishes the vivid bouquet, I

keep upon your sepulchered anamnesis

One tear, held in a drop of rain,

encased in a drop of time, in

a drop of rapacious malaise

One precipitated tear that builds a sea wall,

against the coming of the stormy deluge

One stormy tear, that embraces the rage that fuels,

sustainably the devotion of your benevolent — departed sirocco

One hematic crimson tear, I

cry a day, one tear equivalent to one storm,

more infinite than all storms, in

one aggrandizing lifetime

One tear that intermediating-ly buffers my

noumena, that fills the chalice I anoint

upon your pyres immortal altar

One tear — for your life, two

for your death, three

for the void —

when my kestor armed storm, does pass

One tear, that palliates the tenacity to legate, your

unfinished brio’s design

One tear, with blessings paved,

within my arteries isle, to

journeys end

One tear, I cry a day — a

tear that carves immortal chasmed plains,

in memories faith to exist perpetual.
