Plangent

Plangent mirrors across dead felled bracken
bled sap dust screams with abhor

To native eyes that bleed

The shadows are gone now
Cool shading harbour is peroxide dead

But these shadows return

On the carpet of demand and plenitude

With rigor mortis eternal

Paring through gloss
Beauty unbound

Plaintive sacrifice ripped by chains

The carrion leper squirms it’s last

Into the peroxide dead bracken
