.


beauty feasts upon the relentless fire

a distant vice
breathes in ice
and air
tasting emptiness
and cold, pure
cravings.

isolation fulfilled
with skipping heartbeats
and ash.

smoke twirling in circles
as to bring relief from
mirrors reflecting
an exacting
lust.

by all means
i want to look away
but my fingers splinter
the glass, each shard
glittering cruelly.

(annihilation is stalking me
and beauty
devours eternity.)

Fantastic poem...I love the line "glittering cruelly."
