Scarlet hues knock on the door
Silence filled by a hollow wind
Amidst such peculiarity, excitement soars
A time impossible to rescind
Eyes greeted by a dull veneer of crimson
Dancing along the streetlights and shadows
Above, a dripping moon has risen
First, consumed by the shadow
Next, consuming maroon wine
Until a raw ruby rests and shines
For a moment, it seems, the whole world takes a breath
No whisper of life on the desert drowning in death
In a moment, all tension pours free
Carmine tinted faces strain to see
The blood moon solemnly stands and stares
Upon the darkened Earth
