Poison\'s antidote

I awoke poisoned from a dream of the night

as the breeze of life blew out of the unknown

Blinds opened to infant light,

as lies, disguised as truth, were grown

 

In the shadows, countless specter moons

ride on icy, broken hart steeds

Here trampled hinds, fell in swoons,

into bleeding lagoons of ignorant weeds

 

Time, a magician\'s illusion,

until the stench of rotting flesh does tell

of a child\'s lemon drop delusion,

where death\'s the only antidote for life\'s aging spell
