Apollo of Delos

• Artist: savethesandman
• Description: reality's grasp around each and everyone of us is like a dim light in the middle of a dark room.
  a step outside the light could so easily be taken.

neglect.

the boy rushes to the streets
reality trembles at his feet
the armada has fallen under control of the fleet
hidden dreams and unfulfilled wishes halts defeat

***

the boy lies under a calm Grey sky
a group of masked men, dressed in black
a cadaver intended for dissection
dead memories relieves time off of its duty

you have seconds to live
you had years roped to a branch
the scene was vague
i rose to wake

i return to the dreaming
a group of masked men, drenched in blood
lying on the ground
with no miracle to work for them

the boy, on the other hand
eyes, white. a map of words etched on his now black skin
He of the seven suns aided the "cadaver"
to life and to redemption

the walls of Illion have fallen
the altar of Apollo, desecrated
i am here to retaliate
i am here for vengeance

Hee. Well, no matter - you get a 5/5 inside my head, since it's not open for voting.

its is for the poetry category. XD i selected the wrong category~ XD

[Julia Dream]

Nicely done. Although, the structure of it suggests that this would probably be better suited in the "poetry" section.
