The devil’s parlay
Curtained in mist
Are the eyes lain in mourning
For the cancer
that’s dancing
through my body,
uniformly
Confirming the poison
Within my own essence
The writ of its language
Is languid
in presence
The plague in my bones
The rapturous moans
The devil’s parlay
Unnatural decay
Are the eyes lain in mourning
For the cancer
that’s dancing
through my body,
uniformly
Confirming the poison
Within my own essence
The writ of its language
Is languid
in presence
The plague in my bones
The rapturous moans
The devil’s parlay
Unnatural decay
