(June 2023. After leaving Asheville, I continued working on a three-person daopoem with Cam and Luca via the daopoetry app. These are dudes I love a lot.)
spirit of the trinity flames in all directions:
Untouchable. Unteachable. Roman and sweet like juices
Alchemical tongues, burning like ravens in sun
the prophecy foretells of universal ashes
glittering as diamond dust
Rain sweeping paved roads with poison, white fire licking across rose beds
When the early mist crawls, in ashes,
poisoned, He Who Shall Burn Again rises up.
He sings.
