Oblivion/L'appel du vide/Lysis

Sometimes I feel it pull on me,

this smoky caress against my face,

stroke of my hair.

I want to dissolve into the ocean or

a void,

endless monochrome.

Reverse Venus-birth, suspended falling.

Dissolution, resolution,

rich auroric depth falling through my chest

in prismatic, overlapping tiers.

Blissful death,

the melodrama and grandeur and vast coldness and

satiety of an end.
