Gnomon

This horror is mine
None but I
Could even have summoned the courage of a lie
To gaze behind the veils of man
Feigning utmost,
I witness
The extraction of frailty, shaping of a bane
Voicelessly exposed
Eyes listless, and shackled
Orbless in their chasmal white
Truth, with all its power,
Lives inside me. breathes inside me
As deafening summons descend on deaf ears,
Viperous skin blenches
With the touches, from the speckles,
Of white, of life, of light
This horror is mine. none but I
Could even have summoned the courage of a lie
To gaze behind the veils of man
A tender void
To silence,
The clamor, the bellowing, echo of my will
Riotously exposed.
Hand calloused
The heart withering
Burdened with time
Choke the channels the self is rooted in
Abandon your limbs, abandon your skin
As deafening summons descend on deaf ears,
Viperous skin blenches
With the touches, from the speckles,
Of white, of life, of light
Truth, with all its power,
Lives inside me. breathes inside me
