encrypted stories told to long lost galaxies
curled volcanoes erupted writing on moon-lit stars
bragging to claim first prize on Haley's comet
dual dragonriders entwined on Orion's belt
diamond sweetened blood his taking drink
two way street? goblins drive single routes
crassly sold me to trump's lowest bidder
daemon-dotted air whipped ongoing battlefields
no trophies given for wins or even golden ties
ebony chess wars down patted onto powdered boards
broken pawn hung headless, dried at hunter's portcullis
might have crawled in shadows claiming my space
but now dusty veils pursued midnight arches
roughened hands clasped drugged, sea percussions
crashed into sands laced in broken hourglasses
pebbled mud caked into hard, pueblo masks
no Grimm fairy tales books to hold or clasp close
fluttering like tinker belle in whirled tornadoes
for now he became the glittering Goblin King
shiny arched, posing upon throne of grayed ashes
granting whimsy actions until petitioners plead no lies
bloody fireballs crashed depth-less, dark oceans
solid love heavily sunk into watery crypts
coldly drowned, eaten by rabid sharks
Frenemies made closest allies in war-torn lakes
bowled laneless, traced by poisoned fish food
I gargled, I choked, I whined; Don't forget me
loved him beyond satin cliches, pure sugarcane truth
frozen elysian drained dry as he greedily feasted
dragged stoned on beaten altar of goblin kings and his things
dirty red carpets stank of manure, stars gleamed black
