Poem: My trembling breath enshrines
These shaking hands entwined

That time concealed from thought
By gossamer wings aloft

Black ether engulfs those halls
Where mortals rise and fall

Straining to peer inside
Chaos floods my mind

Wandering in seas of grief
Insanity sets me free

Screaming in terror and pain
Tortured by visions of rage

I shatter that deathly trance
As skeletons erupt in dance

Waltzing in rapturous bliss
I feel that ravenous kiss!

Billowing with heavens elation
Tethered to ocean's creation

Transcendent winds divine
My weary soul to die...
