Cemetary King Quotes

“Dripping charnel
 grounds of light -
I examine hope &
 fear -
blue-black body
 monster of
enlightenment -
call me Youthful
Lightning Bolt -
 tired I slump -
desire's already
 here - I don't
care -
my wrathful
rosary coiled
     snake
  on my cushion -
 I close my tired
  eyes -
 sleep has been
 troubled but
  my mother's
 cancer hasn't
 spread -
     still I
 am the Cemetary
King”
