BLOOD

I create my own madness.
It swirls about the ether of my wanton imagination, and settles as I drift.

I drift, willing dimming eyes to an invisible light
That shines through wintry windows.

Those windows are frosted now;
God traded the sun for dead ice.

The ice seems colder than usual,
And on my twisted throne, so do I.

I long for war,
The heat of it, the brutal glory.

Blood, though, in all of its humanity,
Is not the spring I seek.
