A wound in a mist

You shot me with your words
In fury, syllables sounded like fists
No soft breathing in my ear
Just a loud scream inside me
And the floorboards screaking.
You cut me down with cold clamors
Felt like a lorn scattered flower
In a bleak field, with a beast and a man
And a coffin in my heart.
Ô sun – pansophic sphere – bleeding
While my body hustles and tumbles
At sunset, the soul falling
On the haunting evil’s bird whistle.
But my mouth make no moan
No, it only keeps singing on & on
For the ruinous to lit up the bruised sky.
Ô moon – like a wound in the mist
Irradiate the heath and sing with me
The bullets are my own lines
To exist
