Effigy
Moonlight robes your skin; so melancholic
Hauteur of beauty airs within your grace
To deny the sight; is sophomoric
As eyes bare down to burn upon my face
Ill fortune compels me to your bidding
Your countenance agaze across the land
To subjugate all into believing
That freedom is the gesture in your hand
Your effigy of life, stands resplendent
Suffused amidst; ambient light of moon
To stand in awe before this revenant
does ire my senses, with foul airs of doom
The world apparent; is now Chaotic
The world that was, is now; metaphoric
