Swan of pale(Pale of the swan, painted, dying, wilting in red ribbons, lashing black sails, a tattered mane) Of porcelain white (Her mouth, a death's head smile, tongueless choirs and baited breath, ever watching... The angels beheaded) Her halo, a bloody sun (Bleeding this heart, come clarity, resonance...) Framing a Botticelli face of petrichor weaves black noise (Of petrichor weaves black noise) ...... Where her frame disfigures, light draped, ephemeral (Glacial starfell memories) Her stain glass horizon, the houseglass shattered(Caligari haunting, within this cabinet of change, Upon flutter eye wings) In efflorescence, the shadows' sarabande And silence was her name, the silence so loud ...... Time... Cleanse these severed hands of time Rain, rain again Wash away this pain On moonkissed flesh New kingdom come of earthen vast Libera me... ...... Rain, rain, earthen... Shine, shine New kingdom Shine Shine on... ...... Dreamer, I Dream on dream Dream, follow me afar Weep, come, kingdom come (Oh) hope Libera
