Severus Alexander

20 January, 2017

Like the bumblebee, 

Ever magnified in thick-tongued silence

Beating, tearing, furiously

Our hearts rise, as angels rise

What holds them above the fray? 

To find, and touch so softly

The most delicate flower

That flicks and quivers with every exultation

The human heart

Instrument of life, beyond death

Claim the souls of the departed, O grim reaper

For they are yours forever-more
