~ Dreamless Venessa n’ Timeless Themesus ~

 ~ Dreamless Venessa n’ Timeless Themesus ~

Hush the winds, and lull the sleepy night

Tell the barbed creeper, to undrape a slight

Spew life, in slush dampened wooden wall

Withered white rose petals, shall too thrall

City of veiled dreams, has been dumb spelled

Her hewn n’ sewn silken-moth-robe, quelled

Bewitched n’ enchanted, in such a deep sleep

Venessa slumbered, to make her lover weep

Purgatory penance — death is euphemized

Clock rewound — for time too, circumcised

Themesus, the witty sorcerer, eternally dark

Deep magic to make his evil thoughts, stark

He conjured, to carve out her soft red heart

Incarcerated it amorously, undying thwart

Laid it amidst crass needles, in a box of glass

To prick the lingering breaths, of fading lass

Ah! He’d entrap her soul, to behest her flesh

He summoned upon the shadows — to thresh

An allegorical labyrinth waits to be unraveled

To breathe life into her, throbs such tasseled!

***Venessa and Themesus, are the fictitious characters, conjured from my imagination land…Hope to grow them farther, in poems, and stories…<3
