The Angel of Alchemy

in #poetry8 years ago

The sand and my skin become the same. 

The rain will turn me into clay. 

Remove the scroll and scribe your name. 

Be a master to this lonley slave. 

The plague is not aware of this mud. 

So I'll protect the priest trapped here.

When I feel the blade there will be no blood. 

I won't die till the sea swallows us all. 

Won't find a pulse on this paradox. 

My chemistry ignores the clock.  

Speak while you can, the right word makes me stop. 

My alchemical father had fear in his heart.

Nice. Is your username a reference to "The King in Yellow?"

It is indeed. It is also a reference to True Detective season one. Thanks for reading.
