Riding sky
dying to fly
cresting 
with calumny  

Smoldering lies 
that terrorize
the fragility 
of fleeing for mercy.

Angelic inversions
pirating 
the seas
ecstatic with belief.

Not to collapse
into hell's 
sacrificial traps
hankering for resilience.

The absurd dangles 
uncured 
in grasp 
of mortal bind.

Crimed 
with implications
of the Sisyphean 
sublime.
