Dormant apperception

My spine bends and moulds

His eyes, a plague, descend from the moon

A pantomime of limbs and torso ensues

We, puppets on fraying strings

heads misshaped and saliva burns

Still glowing from his acid touch of deceit

Implanted with slivered fractions of memory

My prophetic gaze mirrored by time.
