The Hell War
Hades crowns the flight
of dirty falcons
with scarlet galaxies
spilled by hell's black tusk
above cities cracked,
broken-backed
in that glittering metaverse
where truth wobbles itself
into lies, idiots become geniuses
and poets wolves,
their meat
the bleeding revolution.
In the shadows, all that's left
of softness
rocks the experimental child
who cannot cry.
