See me gleaming, witness me glooming,
See me hanging, witness me drowning,
In seas of rebored hopelessness,
Or desolated deserts of haplessness,
See me today, ruinously bewildered,
To the weeping wallow of harrowing decay,
Witness me tomorrow, agentive to the dawn’s crescents,
Forlornly forbadem, abandoned and forgotten, watch my descent…
Given adrift, led astray, all to the great witness’s dismay,
I’m doomed to fating damnation, where to, entombed in ruin,
Of perdition bleakly foreseen, unperceived, ill-conceived to convey,
Betrothed to reprobate counsel, condemned to eternal reprisals,
Alone, and indivisible, with nothingness to show me the loathing way,
Of marrow, of spirit, and defeatism, complexly laden to hapless conflict,
Contrite, to confounding retreat, seen distantly, infinitesimally far away.
