a soiled catcher in the wry

a sirens soldier
ululates undulating thoughts
to only the whisperscreaming empty
crested on a dissolving dune
liquid sand swallowing him
slowly whole
until all that is left
is a cleft mind
in a glass cage
marching a leather salted tongue
that is not his
thoughts of death
brush his shoulder
her swivelling eyes
husked
in a barren chrysalis sun
empty echoes
ache
filling
a pitted stomach
as the starlings scatter
blistered in his
undistilled silence
hanging gardens
succulent with promise
cascade away
before his shimmered eyes
just mirages of myth
incandescent will
vaporises in the lifting veil
of a sand papering shroud
the promises of babylon
squinting away
in the haze of
unstroked cuneiform eyes
