devour you whole
inside catacomb of
pungent sarcophaguses
An Ornated auburn seat,
a posthumous throne.
Amidst unsettling dust
of the cold damp tomb
That narrates
Tale of once lived
pains endured
and nemesis borne.
Under a tepid
retreating light
eurythmy of sculpt
as shadows seen..
While I, amongst elysian
phantoms and kinsmen lie.
Sans regrets
of mournful yores
embracing a perfect
state of numbness
during life
and after death alike..

Especially, "Under a tepid
retreating light
eurythmy of sculpt
as shadows seen..
While I, amongst elysian
phantoms and kinsmen lie.:

I am riveted. Speechless...
Yupp, me and my fondness for morbidity. Heehee.
Loved the ending, too. It renders the whole piece compact. ^_^
