Antlers Cradle A Cross

That treacle genie
my wildflower,
passion beyond all perversions,
steer my soul into gentle wars
and clean the scabs I gather
from your havoc.
No shipwrecks lurk within those
jelly green waters,
no shark to savage sleep.
King of the hunt
with a morpheous tipped arrow,
lay me down in mystic tar...
