creative writing – Page 178 – elancharan gunasekaran

i kneel before you bare and allow your fangs to annihilate my very being

in the chasm of frequencies a rogue ships listens to the whispers of the cosmos

the autumn moon calls me kin and every step forward breaks the bones of creation

each severed neck births a new verse a raucous melody

a king’s crown melts and sprouts into a garden of blades

where prophecy ends and nothingness begins from her laughter

spilled seven suns into the sky each a molten orb dripping chaos

in a world that unravels faster than stories can stitch it

made eternal or devoured every star trembles in its cosmic cage

a wizard squints into the storm: this will summon a dragon or a cat that will burn the world
