Saturn (Free verse) by Bachus
I am by fire, all that's used
With no restraint I leap upon muse,
and ride her bloody corpse into the Sea
I am the night-fall quick like that not lit
among the dark and treacherous I find
my meals by the nightmare and my revenge
by the mouthful, sleeping. My legs are thunder,
My mind the sky. I am time, and that
which is written to be forgotten by men
that come and go like so many missed
sunsets concealed by super-cell and
twilight. I think in terms of space so vast
as to not be counted, perceived, or noticed.
I am that planet above the sun dancing
at sunrise and splitting into the
eyes of the world snake.
Graphing the cosmos
with pyramids and reflective
pools. I will number you all,
and cover you with hatred.
Although, that word has no
meaning for you to date
Against, the ways
you will burn.
