Danny Gentile #19 - Vespers


Beaten down into
the claret-boned bad
having no need of ideology

But needing bread
to sop the exhausted
blood of processional wine

The unexempted air
escapes the foetid vents
and reaches for exposure

If that is what it calls
to play from a livid body
the sky will give it embrasure

And science will fade
above the redacted weir
left to carrion's weather eye.
