Eater of Gods

hunger - and the world is reduced
 reduced to the surface of her skin
 like a spray of broken glass
 his bones began to fill with words
 like a monolith once lost
 as our ash crown the barren mountains
 as if mercy were a skin of water
 we fall into a prior dream
 the number of the grains of sand
 exiled from the memory of men
 the strategies of war - trhough a universe of grief
 and the city of mirrors - wiped out by the wind
 through the impenetrable haze
 through shapeless fog
 scattered through the desolate plains
 white shine the bones; eater of gods
 as if mercy were a skin of water
 we fall into a prior dream
 the number of the grains of sand
 exiled from the memory of men
 and as the smoke shifts in black
 only ashes remain
 and as the smoke shifts in black
 eater of gods
 eater of gods
