Earth Burner

earth-burner lies hungry, dying,
scoured faceless, blackened body.
machine mouth filled with stars,
blood violets and dandelion leaves.
wracked with gilded rape and excruciation.
ragged edges twist into the sky,
cerise and vermilion pulsar beats
rhythmically and pulls silken
strands from lion throats.
a universe of bared bones
stripped muscle
sinew rope.

Sun Splitter
